Students in AP® Physics 1 not only have to be able to explain their reasoning through writing when answering many of the questions on the AP® Exam, but they also have to craft a paragraph-length written response to answer the majority of one of the FRQ types each year. In this webinar, veteran AP® Physics teacher and AP® Exam Reading Question Leader, Martha Lietz, will present strategies that can be used throughout the year to help students clearly present their reasoning, as well as highlight ways the Stewart, College Physics for the AP® Physics 1 , 2e program supports writing for AP® Physics 1.
