There has been some confusion surrounding our reading schedule with The Jungle. For the foreseeable future, all students will be responsible for reading 3 chapters of the book per class meeting.
For example: Students in 7th period will need to have read chapters 1-4 by Friday. 2nd and 4th period students will need to have read chapters 1-4 by Monday. On Tuesday of next week, 7th period students will need to have read through the end of chapter 7. On Wednesday of next week, 2nd and 4th period students will need to have read through chapter 7 (and so on...)
If this is confusing to you, please come speak to me immediately.
Now, regarding double entry journals - all students were given an example sheet detailing the double entry journal process. All double entry journals must be typed and all must be turned in at the end of the quarter (date TBA). You will need to complete a minimum of one journal entry per chapter (31) plus another 9 journal entries from elsewhere in the book. This will bring the total of double entry journal entries to 40. The double entry journal is due at the end of the quarter and will represent 15% of your quarter grade. Please do not wait until the last minute to work on double entry journals. If you break this assignment into small pieces it will not ruin your social life.
