AP World History Textbook Reading Schedule ~ 2014-2015
The Global Experience 6th Edition
Please read each section BEFORE class. The pages indicate what material we will be discussing in class that day. So, for instance, if we will discuss P. 8-18 ON Tuesday September 4th - have it read BEFORE that class. We have 36 chapters to study in addition to various outside readings I will assign so it is imperative that you keep up with this textbook reading, on your own, so as not to fall behind. The most important assignment in this class is the reading- you will get the most out of lectures, discussions and various activities if you stay on top of the reading. To know and understand history you must read it.
There will be other Primary and Secondary Source Material Assigned!!!
