You are gonna love this class!- Here's your first assignment.
You made it here so that shows you are serious about World History. Explore the site, then click on "OLDER POST". Read the messages that this year's AP World History students left for you. Lastly come back to this page and leave a message in response to what you read. (This will prove that you have been here.)

Well Mr. Parker its been a fun year I hope you can give your next year students the same fun year that I had.
Mr. Parkers class is long and can drag on some times however over all this class is worth all the hard work and effort if you put it in. there is nothing to be afraid of in this class as long as you do what the teacher tells you. and do this from the beginning don't realize this two terms into the class and then do it you will find its much easier that way. the text reading of this class is long but some what entertaining except for lack of pictures but ya you get my point don't slack off and you will be fine
Well reading all of the past ap student's comments on the class it sounds like a big challenge, but I know what I'm getting into. I'll have to study harder and never procrastinate. Thank you all for the advice I can't wait to say I finished this class and be proud i took a challenge like this.
well first of all, ap world history is a class well worth taking
and second of all, ummm mr parker would it be alright if i did the power point on a poster instead for the last project
its because i dont have power point on this computer

Hello Mr. Parker. After looking through your blog, I think your class will definitely grab my attention. At first I was kind of nervous about joining your class because it is a college class. However, after reading the advice from your previous students, I feel more relieved. Just by focusing in class and doing all the assignments, I'm sure I could do it! Well, I'm looking forward to being in your class and also the different ways you have to get your lectures in our heads, such as the songs!

Hey. From reading the advice and comments left by students who seem to have survived this class, I believe I am ready for the challenge. I look forward to working with you Mr. Parker and getting to know the rest of the people I will share this adventure with. I know it will be hard, but I am ready. See you all . P.S. Go class of 2013!
Hey Mr. Parker!
I'm really excited to be taking your class this year and I look forward to a challenge.
Hi Mr. Parker,
Hope you are having a great summer.
I have heard you are an amazing teacher who is very enthusiastic about history! I look forward to taking your class and to the many challenges that await me... :)

Well, after lookin at the blog and posts by former students,i think the class won't be too hard. It seems like it will be fun in its own way. I can't wait for the class and ope to do well. :)
Aloha Mr. Parker,
After browsing through the comments left by your previous students, I must say that your class sounds like it will be challenging. I look foward to reading the "some what interesting text":) I think it is very helpful that you have all these resources available for us. See you relatively soon.

Cool cool dude. Sounds pretty tough, but I'm down for a challenge. History is a pretty interesting subject to me so it's all good. Lookin' forward to the class.
-Yuuuup,

Mr. Parker, This class sounds like a lot of work, but I'm excited and I cant wait to learn more about the world I live in!
-Kelsey McDonald
Hey Mr. Parker,
I'm excited for this class and i can't wait for this school year to begin. What are Redlines? you talked about them at the meeting and i still don't know what they are?
From the comments of your previous students, it is obvious that AP World History is going to be difficult. I, however, believe that I am ready for this challenge. Overall, I am really looking foward to starting this class, especially after seeing the many resources this blog gives your students.
Hey Mr.Parker,
Can't wait for your class to start, it seems exciting.I will take the challenge of reading all of that text.
~Estela Jimenez
after reading through the comments about the class i now know that i definitely need to read the text and do redlines(whatever those are) haha.
although this class will be a struggle im ready to take it on. i have friends that took the class this past year so that will be a huge help with studying and such. cant wait to take the class!

Based on what other students have wrote...
As long as you do the work and try your best. I should be fine in this class
Looking forward to this class.
Hello Mr. Parker, how has your day been? Good? I thought so. I was impressed by the effort your previous students put into giving us as much insight as possible into your class. For me, History has always been a subject I usually excel at and I trust myself enough to put all of my effort into. Hopefully I will gain valuable knowledge from this learning experience and have fun at the same time. p.s. very exciting comments left by other classmates of mine. VERY exciting.
Hey Mr. Parker.
At first I thought that the class would be difficult. Then the all the advice from the previous class made it seem hard. I got nervous on taking the class but after looking over the comments more, more students were praising that it was a really good class and is worth it. I would rather have a challenging class than an easy class that wastes my time, so I look forward to your class!(:

-mARNDA rICHARDSON.....(YES ALL a'S, NO i'S)
Haha, Hey Mr. Parker! I bet all summer you were wondering when Isis was going to post a comment on your blog! Well have no fear Isis is here! I can't wait to start your class, I've always enjoyed history, and you're class seems fun from what I've been reading on your previous blogs :D plus I know you're a pretty awesome teacher having you for homeroom last year when I was a newbie freshman! Haha, Anyways, laters! On to watching some more movies and writing some more papers.
~Isis
so...what i got from reading some of the blog thingys was that your class is going to be pretty hard, but well-worth it! can't wait to see how i do in your class. i'm going to need to stay on top of things and do my best, which means, no procrastinating, like i kind of have this summer with my work and such. but i'm getting there, where ever "there" is.
Peace Out,
Andrea Rocha :)
From what I've read, it seems I've got a bit of a challenge ahead of me. Looking forward to it, Mr.Parker. Especially the reading :)
I read the comments and the hardest part of the class for me will probably just be that I procrastinate with pretty much everything, but i guess I will have to learn to grow past that.

Hello Mr. Parker this is Kerissa I will be in your class this next year and I am very excited. From what I have read it sounds like a good challange :) I am looking forward to you class.

I checked out the site, and it looks good. It seems challenging enough. See you in a week.

Hey Mr. Parker! I'm glad you told me what to expect, because I was a little nervous at first, but I'm really excited to take the class. Can't wait. :)
- Lynsey :D
I'm both anxious and excited to be in this class. I really hope i can keep up, from reading the comments as long as i keep myself focus I'll be successful.

Hi Mr. Parker,
Well after reading the comments left by your students it seems like this class will be a challenge but considering they passed it I think I can do so as well. I love history and reading so I am looking forward to the class.
-Leticia Ayala
I'm speaking on behalf of the 2012 students. This class is the hardest class you will ever take in your entire life. I guarantee it. You will feel pain like you've never felt before. Good luck. You'll need it.
Ohai.
Well tomorrow's the first day of my first AP World History Class, LOL. Well I think, because I don't really understand what crazy things they did with the schedule.
From ready the older World History students comments it seems the most important thing you've got to do is apply yourself and read thte book, do the work and whatever will help you. My dad won't lemme put my name on the internet 8D. Hope to have a great time tomorrow though. 8D
wat up peeps, sounds like this class will be challenging but fun too. I think the blogs that the last year students left for us will be helpful. It helped me know that I need to be prepared for this class. I also learned I cant procrastinate if I want to succeed. well cant wait till school.... kinda.
Laterz,
Matt
Hi Mr.Parker! Like many people have said, I also am going to be in your new AP history class. The advice from your students that were previously in your class, I'm SURE will come in handy. The class seems like it'll be lots of fun and slightly challenging. I'm pretty excited!!
-Zoie
Hey Mr. Parker! looks like this class is going to be a challenge, i hope i can get beside my lazy self and step up to the challenge, i'll give it my all, 110%!
-Charlie Teevan
turns out i forgot to look at the last textr on the HW page that says "leave a comment" anyway, I'm confident that this minor setback with the summer HW will not be a problem for i shall make up for it with the determination to have an A in your class and get a 5 on that test!
