FRQ Practice: See previous post for AP COLLEGE BOARD past FRQ’s

Today I reviewed the handout I gave you last class!  Know all the terms and make sure you have read this unit on Cognition…. Think about how we describe thought? What are the processes of problem solving? What is creativity? What are the elements of language?  Think about key people(chomsky) and big ideas in this unit!

NEXT CLASS:  First 15 minutes of class is FRQ practice in groups.  I will be collecting responses.  We will be starting each class with FRQ practice now(only 15-20 minutes to come up with a rubric and how you would answer it)
