HW 9/6 "England and the New World"


Read: Eric Foner, Chapter 2, p. 45-53 "England and the New World;" packet distributed in class
Task: Annotate as you read- read the guidelines below before you start
Due: Friday, September 7, 2012 (tomorrow)

Annotation Guidelines:

1. Read FIRST, then annotate
2. You must make at least one annotation note per paragraph. I recommend annotations that summarize each paragraph.
3. DO NOT highlight until you have read the entire paragraph. Once you have read the paragraph, then you can go back and select the items that are worthy of being highlighted for later reference.
4. Underline any words that may be key vocabulary terms or words that you need to look up
5. Developing your own annotation system is acceptable and encouraged (ex: green highlight = vocabulary; blue highlight= important people; [brackets around a sentence]= thesis or big idea; *star= this was discussed in class)
