A full semester of AP Style openers, built for the first five minutes of class. Sixty bellringer slides covering all six core topics — ten per chunk, organized so you can use them for one week or two depending on your pace. Each question gets two slides: the error sentence students correct on their own, then the answer slide showing the original in red, the correction in green, and a plain-language explanation of the rule.

No hunting around for the answer — it's right there. Topics covered: Numbers & Numerals Dates, Times & Ages Names, Titles & Addresses Attribution & Quotes Capitalization & Abbreviations Grammar Essentials Every topic opens with a title slide. Within each topic, slides 1–5 work as a standalone one-week sequence; slides 6–10 extend to a second week.

Use as many or as few as fit your schedule. Teacher notes are in the speaker notes panel on every answer slide — the rule explained, the common student mistake named, and discussion prompts for diving deeper if the class needs it. This bellringer deck is part of the Journalism: AP Style Practice Suite, which pairs these bellringers with matching topic worksheets, six quizzes, and a final assessment — the complete AP Style teach-and-assess sequence in one bundle.
