You are responsible for reading The 7 Habits of Highly-Effective Teens by Sean Covey and creating a formal paper that outlines and describes the 7 habits referred to in this best-selling book about school and life. Your double-spaced, typed paper will need to be completed in Times New Roman font – size 12 and have 3 or less EV’s (is, am, are, was, were, be, being, or been)for every 2 typed pages.; a 1/2-point deduction will be taken from your mechanics score for each additional EV used. (Yes, I will read every word and will count them.) Be attentive to the “VISWOC” (6 Traits of writing) while composing your works & put your brains on the paper!
During the first week of school, we will have several activities that tie into the literature, so be ready to put your knowledge to good use.
Due date – by Sunday, August 8, 2010 – You may e-mail your finalized work to me at sdreher@stpatselkhorn.org , mail it through the postal service, or hand deliver it to the school.
(If you would like to turn it in before August 8, 2010, that is absolutely acceptable. I need some good summer reading, too!)
