Homework

   Week of 14-18 Dec 2009.   
CLASS WORK AND HOMEWORK ARE POSTED TOGETHER SO YOU KNOW WHAT WE DID IN 
CLASS AND WHAT HOMEWORK WAS ASSIGNED. IF YOU ARE OUT, YOU SHOULD KEEP UP WITH 
THE WORK YOU MISSED AND THE HOMEWORK.

FOR 7TH AND 8TH GRADE SOCIAL STUDIES: The procedure for doing chapter work is 
standard all year. When chapters and sections are assigned, you will read the 
section and complete the guided reading worksheets that I hand out at the 
beginning of each chapter. The second part of your homework is to take the  
terms at the end of each section (always question 1 of the section 
assessment) and define them in your copybooks. Label each section and chapter 
so you know where to study before a test. I will check this at the end of 
each marking period and it will be part of your homework grade. Your answers 
for each term should come from the section you are reading. Do not use the 
glossary at the end of the book. I will be giving periodic quizzes, some 
announced, some unannounced. If you do your homework properly, you should not 
have any problem.

7th Grade: Remember- you will always have to complete the guided rdg wksheet 
and terms for each section assigned for homework. Please complete the 
assignments nightly regardless if I finish reviewing a particular 
section in class. It is better for you to be slightly ahead of me so you can 
participate in class discussion. Expect quizzes both announced and 
unannounced.If you do your homework, you should not have any problems.
