DO
1. The reading!
Remember, you are taking AP Literature! It is crucial to do the reading if you wish to excel in this course. Never procrastinate until the last minute, sometimes you will have a LOT of reading to do!
2. Come prepared to class, with needed materials:
- paper/notebook
- pen (blue or black)
- folder
- book
3. Be attentive in class discussions
Even if you zone out for only a minute, you can miss important details that can help you later on.
4. Ask questions
It will soon be no secret that Mr. Bah loves questions. While you are reading, always keep a list of questions you can ask in class.
5. Participate
It is impossible to keep a fruitful conversation going without participation from students! Always be prepared to share your ideas.

DON'T
1. Eat in class
Unless you want to be called out.
2. Write in pencil on essays
It's a bad habit, and a pet peeve of Bah's.
3. Use your phone
It is very difficult to stay engaged in class while texting or surfing the web on your phone. Turn it off and put it away as soon as you get to class. Your friends can wait!
4. Talk to friends during class
It is a dangerous habit and will deter you from learning!
5. Ditch class
How can you learn from class when you aren't even there?!
