Social Studies HW will be given on a weekly basis. Each Friday students
will recieve an assignment which will be due the following Thursday. On
occasion there may be a project or unfinished classwork that needs to be
completed. HW will make up 40% of a student's grade. The other 60% will be
from quizzes, tests, and project work.
Mr. Taylor's expectations for HW are:
1. Complete neatly and in one color - black, blue, or pencil. Students may
type the answers if they wish.
2. Use your resources to complete the HW. All questions can be answered
from Atlas, Encyclopedia, Dictionary, the Internet, etc.
3. Answer the questions in a complete sentence using part of the question in
your answer.
4. Turn it in on time. Don't wait until the last minute.
All homework may be corrected by writing the correct question and answer of
the questions that were incorrect on a separate sheet of paper. Students
should attach the corrected problems to the original sheet and pass into HW
bin. I will give the student full credit if correct.
D.O.G. Week3 due Thursday, October 1st
10/2 Current Events article for weekly HW assigned- Due Thursday 10/8
Students can choose a story that is currently in the news. I have also provided an article for
those
who are unable to access the internet or a newspaper. For our first current event it should be
national
or international news. Students should use the guide sheet, passed out in class, to share the who,
what,
when, where, why, and how of the story. If they are capable of summarizing the article in paragraph
form they may use that format as well.
