Average English 12 (September 28, 2007)

In Class:
The Anglo Saxon Prince--Article Summary

We began the first element of the Senior Research Process--The Article Summary. You will need to complete these elements of the researching process in order to receive your diploma...each of the six exercises will be worth 25 points. So if you are a math whiz, then you understand the importance of of six twenty-five point assignments!

We will be working on this Article Summary exercise in class on Monday as well. If you do not finish the activity in class on Monday, you will need to complete this exercise on your own time, or during a study hall or free period, I can let you into the computer lab. Don't forget that the library is also allowing you to word process on the computers now, so long as you use one of their USB drives to save your work!

See me if you need to make up this assignment!
