FROM Mrs. Grund Preparing for AP Registration Near the end of this month, we will open AP Registration. Start talking to your teachers and parents about the exams, your future plans, and the costs.  The cost for each AP exam is $94.  Here is a link to AP to help answer questions: https://apstudent.collegeboard.org/exploreap/the-rewards

This is a reminder that Charter High School has a partnership with Azusa Pacific University.  This means a $10k per year tuition reduction for seniors who have been at COHS since 8th grade. APU is holding a Sneak Peek February 1-2.  The Sneak Peek is an opportunity for students and their families to visit the campus, hear from faculty, and learn about financial aid. Additionally students have the chance to stay overnight in the residence halls with an ambassador. Information will be presented in English and Spanish. The best news? The registration fee for students and their families for the Sneak Peek is waived.  If interested, go to apu.edu/sneak-peek or call 626-815-2013.

¿Cómo defines una composición buena? ¿Qué características tiene?

Una composición buena es más que el total de sus partes pero sí hay ciertas características que ayudan a crear un texto auténtico y profesional.

Recuerda de usar párrafos It is a characteristic of most texts! It helps to organize related ideas. Take a few mins to group your ideas in a bubble map.

Don’t flip-flop between present and past: Some common errors: Don’t flip-flop between present and past: Las mujeres no podían hacer las cosas que quieren.

Use the correct tense I had a party. I had $20. I will have graduated by June. By 6 pm I had finished my HW. I would have gone but + indicative or if + subjunctive

Use the definite article (el/la/los/las)… with nouns—especially at the beginning of a sentence with nouns that represent a group or institution —las mujeres / la escuela

Avoid “nomás” …use solamente

S T A R U P --Si + Imperfect Subjunctive --Tenses (show what you know) --Audience (formal or informal) --Rhetorical Techniques (¿?,¡!, transitn wds) --Text Type (What characteristics make it look authentic?) --Use WEIRDO + Subjunctive --Proofread! (esp for basic errors but also to incorporate more tenses or complex constructions)
