Summer Work
• Even though this part of the course is not that enjoyable, do not save it to the last minute
• Turn in assignments a day or two in advance so problems can be avoided with technical difficulties
• Do not read sparknotes to help with assignments on book readings, you are only hurting yourself

Supplies• 2 inch or more 3-ring binder
Leave you binder at home or in your locker because it is a pain to carry aroundUse a smaller folder for the current unitTransfer papers after the unit test into your binder

one pen is highly recommended You only need pencils for test days, but make sure they’re sharp and
that you have a spare because the tests are extensive

same place and will remain organized

time wisely If you don’t have much

Note Taking• Do NOT write down
everything Mr. Hathaway says He says a lot, and we know it is
tempting to write it all down, but when you write too much you don’t absorb the information
Write down the heading of each slide
• Ask questions If you don’t understand the
power point it’s probably because Papa Hath doesn’t always proofread

Note Taking Continued
• No note packets, you’re on your own Coming from Ms.
Hailey’s pretty color coded note packet’s, Mr. Hathaway’s power point lectures can be daunting

Readings• Books
– They are for the most part interesting and informative
– Papa Hath gives them to you early for a reason ( they’re long)
– Book reviews always follow the completion of the book
• Textbook readings– Truthfully, the textbook is long
and boring– You can survive without reading
it, there is a link on Papa Hath’s web page for the textbook, where outlines for the chapters are available
