1 HOMEWORK DIRECTIONS and CALENDAR Please note: you will receive ONE paper copy of this calendar. If you lose it you must download and print it at home. The most successful WHAP students are those who do all of the reading and notes. Performance on exams correlates to purposeful reading, note-taking and engagement in class discussions. DON T GET BEHIND!! Formatting: 1. Heading: In the top RIGHT HAND CORNER of your paper, include your CHAPTER NAME and the CHAPTER NUMBER and PAGE NUMBERS of the assignment. 2. Divide your paper into two columns: Left 1/3 and Right 2/3 (Cornell style without summary section). 3. Use the left-hand column for headings, terms and discussion questions. 4. Use the right-hand column for your notes, which can be in any format that is useful to you: bullet points, numbers and letters, etc. Discussion Questions these are mostly from your readings (some will be connections to previous discussions or lessons). Sometimes I will discuss these in class, sometimes I won t. DQs should be included in the left-hand columns next to their corresponding content. Leave some room to add content from in-class discussions. Miscellaneous: 5. All readings are due on the date listed. 6. Notes are worth 5 points per section 7. When beginning a new Part (Unit) of the text, always read the tan colored 2-page introduction. It isn t necessary to take notes but it provides a good overview and it connects directly to WHAP Themes. 8. When beginning a new chapter in the text you should also read the first couple pages to get the big picture of the whole chapter and read the paragraphs 9. Don t skip over the boxes labeled Thinking About Traditions and Thinking About Encounters. Make sure you read them and include any important info in your notes. These can be bellringers on certain days. 10. Additional Readings: a. Primary sources should be analyzed in your notes using the SOAPS guidelines (more info later). b. Academic articles should be highlighted for thesis, main ideas and evidence. 11. Thematic Period Reviews: These assignments are intended to help you gather content in a thematic format for review purposes. More directions to come. 12. Skill Development Days: these are inserted into the calendar to 1) give us an extra day with some content, 2) allow us to devote entire days to writing skills and 3) to give us some wiggle room if we get behind in our schedule. Homework for these days will generally involved a short writing assignment, to be determined. 13. Homework directions and calendar are subject to change. 14. If I discover that your notes are not your own, you will receive a ZERO.
2 Tips for Note-taking Follow the guidelines on the Homework Calendar to understand which pages and sections to read and how to format your notes. Use this handout to help you take good notes. These notes will be invaluable for studying for my tests and for the AP exam. Write down main ideas/key info for each paragraph When you reach an Important Term (from the list on your Homework Calendar) take more detailed notes (see chart below) Leave space between topics Create a personalized abbreviation system Use some form of bullets Cut out unnecessary words No complete sentences Make these notes useable to study from! For the Important Terms, use the following guidelines to help you take thorough notes. Person: Who and where from major policies accomplishments/contributions problems/critics successors Religion/Philosophy: Founder and important leaders Beliefs and/or teachings Impact on society Methods of practice Event: What happened? Why? (causes) Who was involved? When (not necessarily a date, but in the period) What was the impact/effect? How did people react? Empires: Founder and important leaders Chronology in history Methods of governing Accomplishments Problems Rise and fall Place: Location and purpose Founding/Creation Characteristics Why significant? Conflict: Who fought? When (period) Why did they fight? (causes) What was the outcome? (effects) How did it affect the people? (effects) Why significant to unit of study? (effects) Term (anything else): Identification/definition What/who associated with Purpose and significance Cause/effect
