First off, I want to say that I had a great time being in Mrs. Halfen's AP Psychology class. From the start I knew this class was going to be really interesting, and the class had definitely went above and beyond my expectations. It makes me a little sad knowing that the semester is winding down to a close.
What did you like about the class?
I think what appealed to me most was just learning about all of the different concepts of the human mind. Watching interesting videos and learning about psychology helped me to better understand my own thoughts and feelings. Psychology is also just a really cool subject. =]
What was your favorite activity or project?
My favorite activity in Psychology was taking the IQ test. It was interesting to actually take one and see what my score was.
What didn't you like about the class?
As the semester moved on, I think our pace slowed down a lot, and we seemed sort of rushed to learn the rest of the chapters before the semester ended. Hurricane Ike was probably the cause of much of that, but I still didn't like that whole "hurried" feeling.
What do you think I should leave out next year?
At the moment, I can't really think of anything that should be left out.
(Maybe take out all of those hard quizzes and tests? (Only joking of course.))
Do you have any suggestions or ideas for things I could do next year in AP Psych?
Same answer as above. =P
Do you have any suggestions or ideas for next semester in AP Econ?
I've seen those Monopoly board games in the classroom, and I really hope that we can just have times where we just sit down and play Monopoly. I really love that game. =]
Overall, I had a great time being in AP Psych, and I'm really looking forward to being in AP Econ next semester. Thanks for all of your hard work Mrs. Halfen!

i also liked taking the IQ test. Im glad that the class went "above and beyond" your expectations.
Good luck with Economics
I hated that "rushed" feeling too especially since the stuff at the end of the semester was really interesting. I think the class will be better when its a year-long course.
Yep IQ tests where fun
I agree with you, Psychology is a cool course, and has helped me gain better insight into my mind. The IQ test was fun, but also caused a lot of hurt feelings in class, and as it wasn't very accurate in the first place, I don't think we should have done it. But, I do like your idea about Monopoly, it would really give us hands-on learning experience with economics ^_^
yeah its unfortunate that this semester is coming to a close. She was a awesome teacher. Anyways, good job.
