The Reason You’re All Screwed Up (AKA Unit 2)

Unit Assignments (for each night . . . )You are responsible for researching/collecting basic information regarding each of the topics below. Your text book is a valuable resource, but not the only useful one—please do not limit yourself to knowledge of its content ONLY!!

1. Take notes using the outline provided you. Fill in the appropriate details as you read.

2. Create a note card to represent the definition and application for each of the vocabulary terms every night. You will use these as a study tool now AND at the end of the school year. On one 3X5 note card, write the word on the front, the definition and one application for the word on the back.

Unit Calendar: **The date listed next to each assignment is the date all notes are DUE!!

UNIT 2 TEST!

Study Tip: Use practice tests and quizzes in your text or consider purchasing an AP test prep book with practice questions to narrow down the topics you need to study. Don’t waste your time trying to learn/re-learn it all!!

Study Tip: Choose a time to study when you are most awake and alert. Perhaps in the afternoon, right after dinner or during PRIDE period while at school. DO NOT try to study first thing in the morning or late at night—it will waste your time, because you will retain only 30% of what you’ve attempted to learn.
