Review for
final exam; Last day of classes |
*Reading journals are simply
notes that you take on your reading.
They can be reading response (what do you think about it based on your
opinions and experiences), or summary (be sure to include some of
this to help you get the main ideas).
Your journal should be a minimum of four pages per assignment
(handwritten, typed will be shorter).
They will be read by a classmate.
The following are the dates
for the final exam. You may come to any
of the times, regardless of which section you are in.
Wed.,
December 8, 10:30 am, Evans 123
Thurs.,
December 9, 1:30 pm, Evans 123
