Literature 6.1 What is our lesson objective? What will I be able to do by the end of this lesson? I will be able to complete a critical skills assignment that includes writing a narrative.

How do I complete Unit 6? You will have three lessons to complete this assignment (Today is the first.) You will answer a variety of different questions. First, you will read a story and answer several multiple choice questions. Next, you will answer several questions that require you to write several sentences to answer them completely. Next, you will read an article, and answer multiple choice questions about it, followed by several short-answer questions (see above). Last, you will write a story with several paragraphs.

When/how will I turn it in? For now, save your answers in a file on your computer. Your Learning Coach will read and evaluate it. Keep the file that you saved your work in! It will be the Work Sample for January. This assignment counts twice ! Once as part of your OLS progress, and once as the work sample. Because your work sample is not due until the end of January, its grade will go on the 3 rd quarter.
