How long should it take? The average time to complete these assignment is about 40 min. I typically assign these with two days notice so students can split up over two nights. The length of time will vary from student to student. If it is taking your child a very long time to complete these assignments, please have them see me and I'll advise them with strategies that may help them be more efficient.
*Parents and Students, please read the following*:
Using the wording from the book IS ok. Students are encouraged to write in their own words, but use of the wording in the book is just fine. There is ZERO TOLERANCE for cheating and plagiarism. ALL work should be completed by the individual student and not copied from online sources or other students. If students do not understand something, they should complete the work to the best of their ability, and ask me at an appropriate time the following day for guidance. All answers for bookwork will be in the book. Some questions will require students to synthesize information on their own. Students may also message/email me with questions (most will be answered the following day, but there's always a chance I could answer the same evening-don't bank on it, but there's a chance).
If students find themselves stuck on something, they should complete as much of the assignment as possible, and then ask me help the following school day. I will happily discuss and guide them through it. Students will not be penalized for coming in with a question on the bookwork if they have completed the rest of the assignment.
