Ladies and gentlemen,

First of all, I received some questions about the quality of the drawings I expect in the assignment.

As long as it looks good, I have no problem with it. You know me, though - Even if your drawings aren't as great as M.C Escher's, I won't have a huge problem with it, as long as you can show me that you've put genuine effort into the work, and not used the excuse "Oh, Mr. Kassam knows that I'm not good at drawing, so I'll just do as little work as possible and claim that I can't draw", you'll do fine!

Now, back to the point of this post:

I am giving you homework on a Sunday!

Yaaaay!

yes, I'm completely insane. No, it's not because I hate you. If you do the homework tonight, then you will have nothing to do tomorrow, and may indeed escape my wrath if you forget to do it!

Your homework:

er... Hang on a minute, it was here a second ago...

*clank*

*crash*

*cat meowing in the distance*

*Glass shattering*

HERE IT IS! I FOUND IT!

Your homework is: Take notes on the Holocaust from pages 246-248 in your history textbook. Your notes should be AT LEAST ONE PAGE. Pay attention to numbers and ideas.

Remember, I've already taught you how to write notes. Follow RUWS (read, underline, write, skim), and you'll do just fine!



Now, before you get going, remember: You will be tested on these notes. Don't know what to write down? If you were me, and you were making up a test, what would the questions look like?

Now, write your notes like you're answering questions on the test!

Mr. K
