Welcome to class! Congratulations on the commitment of your time and energy to Advanced Placement
United States History. Class has started! This will be a demanding course; a course that will challenge
your mind and engage all of your facilities over the 2018-2019 school year. Our time is very limited
during the school year. Thus, we have to begin our studies over the summer.
* Before you begin any of the summer assignments please accept the invitation to our google classroom,
using the code: 8ta2f9
The reading assignments can also be found at todaysmeet.com/Bee-APUSH

a. Label all major landforms
3. List all of the presidents of the United States including their years of service

Tips:
Begin your work right away and schedule a regular time during the summer to complete it.
Avoid doing everything at the last minute (the week before school starts for example!);
Spread your work out over the course of the summer in small pieces.
Should you have questions regarding this work or the course, please do not hesitate to contact me
via email: [email protected]
Thank you for signing up for AP US History! I very much look forward to working with you this fall.
