4th Quarter Extra Credit


4th Quarter Extra Credit – Mr. Guay

Following the news

As an extra credit option for the 4th quarter, complete the criteria below:

1. Cut out a front-page article in the newspaper and paste it into a notebook. Highlight the most important information in the article. Underneath the article or on the next page, write a response to the article that both summarizes the article and has your thoughts and reactions to it.

2. Now, follow this article that was first pasted. It probably won’t be on the front page anymore, so you may have to search online or throughout a newspaper. Find 4 articles that relate to the original article. These should be from dates after the original article, but may be from earlier. Cut and paste the article into the notebook. Highlight the most important information, then summarize the article and write your thoughts and reactions to it.

Total: 5 articles, cut and pasted into notebook with summarizing and thoughts written below or next to it.
