Cracking the AP European History Advanced Placement Exam. (The Princeton Review) 2018

Edition. ISBN: 978-1-524-710095. This book is required for the Summer Reading; we used it last year, so it's around. ALSO the 2017 and 2016 editions are fine for the summer assignment (basically same narrative). The book is also available through MBS.

Summer Assignments are as follows

1) 3-Ring Binder: you are expected to have your binder and be ready-to-go on the first day of class.

Get a one-and-a-half inch thick (1 1/2”) three-ring Binder for class. Inside have eight (8) dividers—note that the divider is placed IN FRONT of

each section as follows: —General Materials (for Syllabus, Schedule, Study Skills, Art notes, etc.) —Unit 1 c.1400-c.1648 (Renaissance through Wars of Religion, Ch. 11-13) —Unit 2 c.1648-c.1815 (Monarchical States to Napoleon, Ch. 14-19) —Unit 3 c.1815-c.1914 (Age of Revolutions to WWI, Ch. 20-24) —Unit 4 c.1914-present (Global Wars to Globalization, Ch. 25-30) —Short Answer Questions —DBQs —LEQs 2) Answer the ID TERMS—in dark blue or black ink—on the following

pages. Get the answers in the Content Review (Part V) in Cracking the AP. Record the basic information in a way that you will know what it means at the

end of the year (this is what taking notes is about). Must be hand-written on the sheets that follow. Please do them neatly, in dark blue or black ink. Did I mention to use pen?

Don't freak out about this; do part of it at a time, and actually READ the Content Review. The purpose of the summer assignment is for you to become familiar with the basic themes and the flow of the course. We will cover all these people and events in more detail during the year, but it's very helpful if you've heard of them, and made some notes about them, in the context of a narrative for the AP European History course. Write neatly, this is supposed to be a study tool.
