Good morning and welcome to APES!
Many of you did last week’s work and checked in with the proper authorization code phrase. This week will go similarly. I continue to work on video conferencing and hope to actually see you all next week. Until then, stay safe, stay healthy and read Chapter 15.
I will try to include a pic and pdf of the Ch. 15 vocab sometime today. Those of you in the top 10 for April QuizUp are:
- Lacey!
- Dania
- Moat
- Aya
- Me!
- ?
- Aseel
- Lana
- ?
- Tamy
These seven folks will not have to worry about the Final Exam. Also, if you are taking the AP Exam, let me know so I can also exclude you from the final.
Any juniors who were not in the Top 10 in April can still avoid the final by being in the top ten for May. Seniors are not eligible since they will be done with school before the end of the month and your grades need to be in before the QuizUp final results will be official.
I’ve been out a bit, enjoying nature at a local park. The trillium are in all their white 3-petaled splendor. If you are authorized to go out, I hear U of M in Dearborn has a nice bunch of them. By the Environmental Center. Ms. Meyers suggested it. Send me a pic in Remind if you can.
So, to check in this week send me a note in Remind of what place you were in April QuizUp. Read Chapter 15 on Air Pollution (one of my favorite topics) and think about how COVID-19 quarantines have affected the air and how people in polluted cities have a higher rate of death due to the virus and air pollution synergism.
Also, if you have not done so, please enroll in the APES iLearn. Do not share the code with outsiders, please: piczzj
Stay healthy, please!
