Classwork: Read and discuss Scarlet Letter Chapters 3-6
Homework: Start winter break work
Winter Break Assignment
1.
Read Chapter 7 and 8 of Scarlet Letter and
complete study guide questions.
2.
If you took the PSAT, spend time looking at your
results. Log onto the website using the
code on your booklet. Look at which
skills they recommend that you practice, then complete a reflection that
answers these questions for EACH of the 3 sections on the PSAT.
i. What
score did I get on the section?
ii. What
skills did I master best?
iii. What
skills do I most need to improve?
iv. What
plan for improvement can I follow to improve my score in this section?
v. When
can I reasonably be ready to take the SAT and score well on this section?
vi. Choose at least ten questions that you
initially got wrong (at least three from each section), and EXPLAIN why the
correct answer is correct, and also why you initially got the question wrong.
3.
If you did not take the PSAT, you must complete
a practice AP style passage by Mark Twain – this was distributed in class and
is also posted in Classroom documents on the blog (it is the second passage in
the scanned document under winter break work).
After you read and complete the passage, answer these questions:
i. Which
two questions were easiest? What
evidence made you know that you got the correct answer?
ii. Which
2 questions were most challenging? Why
did you select the answer that you did?
iii. Choose
at least 5 questions from the passage and explain your answer. What evidence do you have from the text that
proves that you are correct?
4.
Rest and be kind to your families and
friends.
