APUSH EXTRA CREDIT PAGE

hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh


I'm trying something new here.  Each Unit I will be offering one or two extra credit activities for my APUSH students.  Each activity must be completed by the due date to be counted.  The number of points given will be based on the quality of the work produced.  Extra credit work can be turned in by e-mail in a word or pdf document, or turned in at the start of class on the day due.  Extra credit will be entered into the grading category:  Homework, reading notes, notebook, quizzes.
