Thank you for your hard work, my kids love your videos and the Period Review slides!!! We all think your work and commitment to the APUSH is great. Thanks from myself and my students in China!
Shoutout to Adam Norris!!! He is the one who deserves it above all!!!!!
Thank you for all the wonderful resources that you have generously shared with the APUSH community- my students and I really appreciate it!!!!!
Mr. Adam, thank you always for your wonderful videos!!
I know that you’ve been mentioning, referring, and screaming about the importance of Collegeboard Course Description…What are some key takeaways we get out of this document? (what should we students look out for??) I took a glance at it months ago, and it seemed to be listing themes and historical skills, outline, and sample questions.
I would look at the concept outline and be familiar with key terms that are mentioned (Encomienda, Containment, 13th amendment, etc.)
Thank you Adam, for these videos! Our entire class uses them to help learn the material – not sure if we’d be even close to ready for this exam without you!
THANK YOU SO MUCH ADAM! We would probably be lost without you and your videos have helped all of us to prepare for our exam and learn the material in full!!!
Thank you !! You have helped us all so much!!
HEY! Thanks for your support. Mrs. Hoch is awesome.
We have been using your materials for review! Very helpful! Only my second year teaching APUSH and you have really helped me. Thanks so much
That’s great to hear. Good luck to you and your students on Friday!
I was wondering when are you going to put up concept 9.3?
I hope to tomorrow, *fingers crossed*
I just want to say thank you so much, I started these videos last week and I have a week left for my AP test and honestly, everything makes so much more sense now, even after i started watching the pageant videos my quiz grades began to go up and so did my over all class grade, and honestly I couldn’t thank you enough.
That’s great to hear. Good luck Friday!
Mr. Binion’s students thank you!!!
Thank you so much for creating these resources. My class has used these regularly to review for their period tests. Some of my students use them even if they aren’t assigned. You’ve provided some of the best resources available for the redesign.
That’s great to hear. Thanks for your support! Best of luck to your students.
Thank you Mr. Norris. My class improved a lot on our tests since we started watching your videos. Please give a shot out to Mr. Mejia’s class from Mater Academy. Once again thank you so much!
You videos are amazing, they helped so much!
I was just wondering that at the end of 9.1 you wrote WWII but said WWI. Is the question going to relate to after WWI or WWII or both?
It should be WWII. I misspoke.
Thank you so much for these videos, they are really helping me study for the exam. You explain a lot of these concepts better than my APUSH teacher. In the rest of this week leading up to the exam, we are going to spend one class talking about each of the following: Vietnam War, Civil Rights Movement, Watergate, period 9. Thanks for clarifying so many things.
Mr. Adams-
I found your site about 3/4 of the way through the year. It has been a godsend and so helpful to my students at Pitman High School in Turlock, CA. Thank you for the time and effort you put into the material. At the end of 9.2 you mentioned that you would discuss the Obama administration in 9.3 – where do I look for that material?
Thank You

You are the reason you will get college credit. I’m glad the videos have helped. Good luck!
Wanted to say a huge thank you for the videos and notes. I lost my voice these last two weeks and it has been a great resource for my classes to review in class and out. Good Luck to everyone on Friday and to all the Texans Good Luck on STAAR EOC Thursday.

Oh Mr Norris, where do I even start you are the most wonderful and vibrant person ever. The way you voice vibrates inside me, the way your slideshow makes me go CrAZy. You are jus the bestest person even and i love you so much sir. I will always love and glaze you till the day i die. Mr Norris, you are the reason i’m still here, you have kept me alive everyday listen to your review videos. I will always appreciate everything you have done for me. Thank you for blessing me and my family for life. I love you.
I hope you did well on the exam. Sorry for the late reply. Best of luck in the future!
My Glorious Poookie Bear Adam Norris, where do I even begin. From the moment I entered this world I knew i would need to review for the APUSH test. I heard a voice calling out to me, saying “Adam, Adam.” You were there in my thoughts from the beginning. As time passed and I began to grow, I was still reminded of my need for you. I knew that someday, I would need your review tools to help me pass this test. From the moment I entered APUSH class on August 7th, 2023, I heard your voice cry out to me once more. I heard the voice say “What’s up APUSH peeps.” It brought a tear to my eye, such a beautiful voice I hadn’t heard since that moment of my birth. Each one of your videos I listened to, each one with more excitement. It got to the point where if I wasn’t hearing your voice, I was not happy. I craved that time at night, where I could listen to you rant about Henry Clay, while I viciously took notes. Now the AP test approaches, but I know that I will succeed. Your voice stays in my head every second I breathe. Every step I take, every move I make, I hear your beautiful voice while I do it. I know I will pass this AP test, because you will be with me always. Till the day I lay down to rest one final time, and take my last breath, you will be with me. Thank you Adam.
Haha, sorry for the late reply. I hope you did well on the exam. Best of luck in the future!
