Nonfiction Reading

All students are required to read The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Teens by Sean Covey.  The second week of school, I will give you a test on the content of the book.

Vocabulary

Please complete the exercises in units 13 through 15 in yourVocabulary Workshop level B book.  We will have a test on these words shortly after you return.  Many words in this workbook have appeared on previous Catholic High School Entrance Exams.  If you are planning to take the CHSEE, or any other entrance exam for high school, it would be good preparation to study the words in this workbook.
