Holiday Homework Round-Up

All classes from third year up have homework over the summer holidays. Don't forget! Everything is due on the first day back in August: 

20/8/13

Third Year

Your homework is to complete your perfect murder story. Remember the structure (a couple of posts down) and also remember the length - no less than three jotter pages and no more than four. You can type the story instead if you like; in that case aim for 600-800 words.

Fourth Year

Your main focus should be on completing your Added Value Unit. You will by now have read your books, or will be well into them at the least. For August, you need to complete the yellow booklet and hand that in with your 700-800 word essay on your two books.

Higher

You guys have a lot to do over the summer, so don't leave it all to the last minute!

1) Complete your planning sheet and first draft of your short story for your folio. Word limits are 650 words minimum, 1300 words maximum.

2) Read Macbeth. Didn't get a copy? Look at the Higher tab above for a link to the edition I recommend. If you're really stuck though, read it online.

3) Complete the non-fiction reading record booklet. You need to show me that you have read one newspaper article per weekday during the holidays, so that's a minimum of 35 pages of the booklet completed. There are extra sheets in the booklet. Lost your booklet? No problem! Download another copy here.

Intermediate 2

You need to complete the first draft of your reflective essay for your folio. Word limits are 500 words minimum and 1000 words maximum. See a couple of posts down for the planning sheet, which you should hand in with the essay in August.

I will be unavailable for the first three weeks of the school holidays, but will be replying to emails from Monday July 22nd onward. You can reach me at missfyvie@live.co.uk

Have a great holiday everyone, and come back in August ready to work hard! :-)
