A.P. US HISTORY Information

For Students interested in taking the AP US History Exam next year, a detailed description and course information can be found at the following link: www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/ap/sub_ushist.html?ushist .

Although this class is listed as “Honors American Humanities Block”, it covers almost all of the same material required to take the AP US History Test, and even more of the social and cultural requirements of the college board.  I would argue that including Honors American Literature makes for an even stronger connection to American History for Students.  It is the closest Hartland Social Studies Department comes to an AP course in this subject.

Link to Mr Wabel’s Site and Summer Reading Assignment!

The link to the Honors American Literature site is http://hhshumanities.wordpress.com and Students can find the Honors US History .pdf for the summer reading there for now.

The assignment for all Honors US History (Humanities) Students is as follows:

1. Read, Know and Understand the Prologue (16 pages) which is linked here:

2. Create an outline of notes in the form of a Study Guide.  Be prepared to turn it in to LTC Scheidler on the first day of class.

Note: Students who will not have access to the Summer Reading via the internet may come to Room 329 and collect a paper copy of the Prologue.

SUMMER READING REQUIREMENT!

All Students who have been accepted to the Humanities program are required to complete the Summer Reading Requirement which will be posted shortly as a jpeg file which can be saved to any device or simply read from the site.

STAND BY!

As this site is constructed it will eventually contain all requirements, information and some text required for Hartland High School Humanities Course for the 2011-2012 school year.
