the working notebook is the daily notebook taken to class. it hold all the papers and information needed each day. any three ring binder can serve as a working notebook the nylon zippered type tends to last longer. your working notebook should contain:

  • a portable three hole punch
  • a zippered pouch with three holes to hold highlighters, pencils, pens, clips, ''sticky notes'' and other small supplies
  • a monthly calendar
  • a ruler
  • section dividers for each subject labeled homework, notes, handouts and quizzes/test
  • an assignment book
these items are available at most office supply stores in a three hole punched format so they can be easily inserted into the notebook. this is important because if the items are not attached to the notebook, they will get lost in backpacks or left at home or school.

one working notebook for all of your child's classes might be too large for some students especially if they are in high school. two medium size notebooks with two or three subjects in each is an alternative to one large notebook. morning classes might be placed in one and afternoon classes might be placed in another.

whichever alternative note about that you choose the important thing is that on daily basis you should date three hole punch and file any his school papers under the appropriate divider for each subject. you should also note assignments in details in his assignment books.

                                          prompt 4
thanks to the internet people have more access to more information that at any other time in history. people can instantly find information on almost any topic in the time it takes to type of a couple of words and a click of a mouse. but we often know so little about the source of this information including its reliability and the qualifications of the person who wrote it. if we don't know its source, information is not much good to us.

assignment

1.Do people need to know the source of any information before they use it? yes because the topic that they look for could be inappropriate and they might not feel comfortable with it. so is important to check in the information they need to know what they are going to see.

2.  plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading studies experience or observations.

i think that it is kind of a risk taking problem because you never know what could happen you could get a virus. for example if you enter a page some advertisement could pop out and it could be a trick. Many things can happen  you have to be careful on what you click on because many people want to scam you and want your money.

many colleges now offer courses in which students study television programs, comic books, magazines, advertising and other aspects of popular culture. critics complain that school should not replace serious literature and history causes with such fluff. they claim that courses in popular culture present material that is trivial and inconsequential. but the study of popular culture can be just  as important demanding and instructive the study of traditional subjects.


assignment: 
can the study of popular culture be as valuable as the study of traditional literary and historical subjects?

yes because it could help the students in their social life and it would maybe make there life more easier. Also they need to know what was going on. And history was a important subject and it still is because in the past a lot of things happened. People need to know what was going on and why everything all started. In literature is also important to because it could help them in their writing when they read stories and when they read it helps them improve in their writing because they say that reading makes you smarter. so everything is important because it all helps you in your future.

Student success statement

‘’honesty is the corner stone of character. The honest man or woman seeks not merely to avoid criminal or illegal acts but to be scrupulously fair upright fearless in both action and expression booth in dollars and in peace of mind.’’

i think that this means that people that don't do anything that they get into no bad situations and things like good things are always going to happen to them no matter what. because they are not bad people. unless your bad then bad luck will happen to you.
