COLLEGE BOARD SUGGESTED TIPS AND STRATEGIES:
http://www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/ap/prep_lang.html
Write a summary of what the five exam sections are. For each of the five sections, what percent of the
exam does each count, how do you score a perfect 5 (or a 3 or above), and most importantly, how
should you prepare for the exam and what are the most helpful study strategies for you?
Find an online article in Spanish that you think describes the most significant event of the summer.
You can look for your article on any of the Spanish or Latino news websites such as BBC Mundo,
elpais.com, yahoo en espaol, people en espaol, espn en espaol, Univision, etc.
Use the following sheet to plan the argument you will make to the class to convince them that this was
one of the most important events of the summer. You will be presenting your arguments to the class
during the first weeks of school, in random order.
Write out three logical and coherent arguments in Spanish to support your naming this event as an
important event of the summer. Write at least 2 original ideas for each argument. Do not directly quote
your article. Please dont pick an article/event that you cant thoughtfully support with evidence.
Hand in the following sheet and the article on the first day of school.
OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS:
Have your own ear buds or head set with microphone for class and homework.
Consider buying a prep book, such as AP Barrons Spanish Language and
Culture (currently about $20 on Amazon) or getting a student subscription to an AP
prep website like Vista Higher Learning - https://www.vhlcentral.com/ for additional
practice outside the classroom. If purchasing any prep book be sure to check that it
was released no earlier than 2013 since the format of the exam was revised in 2014.
Do not buy a book which has the title Spanish Language but does not include the
phrase and Culture.
