Further Clarification on Summer Assignments

For VOCABULARY:

Vocabulary must be HAND-WRITTEN.



For READING RESPONSE (RR) ANSWERS:

Re-state the question in the answer.

Make sure you are answering the question according to what is specified for the "Command Terms" (last sheet in the Summer Learning Packet), such as "describe", "identify", "to what extent", and so on.

Your chapter RR answers must be TYPED and E-MAILED to me by the deadline for each chapter.

Please include the TITLE of the assignment in the subject line of your e-mail to me.

You may send the answers to me in the body of the e-mail or as an attachment.

Whatever way you send your answers, you should keep a copy of your answers (as a Word document, a saved e-mail in a special "assignment folder", and/or hard copy).



For both VOCABULARY and READING RESPONSE ANSWERS:

The answers in these assignments should be written in complete sentences, and in paragraph form, when appropriate.

Bullets and sentence fragments should not be used for these assignments (but ARE acceptable on the "Chart" assignments in the Summer Learning Packet).

Length of answers: The length of answers should fit the assignment. A short paragraph or a few sentences should suffice. Remember, though: I am looking for the QUALITY, not QUANTITY, of the answer.




Good luck,
Mr. Todd
