http://davisap.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
The End of the Road. Monday, December 29, 2014. I know that you have all spent time curled up beside the lights of the Christmas tree, reading about Gregor and his Bug Life. I know that the pamphlet wasn't too much and now you are ready for an assignment! So here you go. It's in three parts and before you panic, the entire assignment should not take you longer than about 3-4 hours, total. Probably less. OK? DUE DATE: FRIDAY, JANUARY 9. Part 1: Shrinklit Poem. Below is a great example of a Frankenstein.

The End of the Road. Monday, April 28, 2014. Posted by A. Davis. Repost of Last Year's Projects for Inspiration. Final projects in AP were to come up with a thesis statement that can be threaded through at least three of the works from this semester, then write a two page paper and do a visual project on that thesis.
