**ATTENTION 3rd HONORS AMLIT: HW ASSIGMENT DUE COMPLETED WED. 10/20**

3rd HONORS American Lit./Comp.

HW DUE WED. 10/20: 

Using the NYTimes Upfront MAGAZINE given to you TUES. 10/19 in class (*SEPT. 20, 2021):

1) FIRST, READ the article "The Price of Fast Fashion" pp. 8-11 (MAGAZINE in WRITING section of your binder; article also linked on Classroom)

2) NEXT, CAREFULLY go back over the:

• "Making Annotations: A User's Guide" notes we made/highlighted today (WRITING SECTION guide sheet)
• your OWN "China's Cram Schools" ANNOTATIONS we shared in class yesterday/today   

FINALLY, LOOK OVER THESE NOTES/ANNOTATIONS and:

3) COMPLETE THE SAME TYPE OF ANNOTATIONS TASK FOR "The Price of Fast Fashion"

**As you annotate this article, ask YOURSELF the following:

• Are the HIGHLIGHTS I MADE DONE WITH MEANING, and IS IT CLEAR what I'm showing--not just randomly-colored lines OR TOO MUCH HIGHLIGHTED?
• Did I use a pen/pencil and ASK QU's or DEFINE TERMS on/in the text?
• DID I CITE KEY QUOTES/MAIN IDEAS via HIGHLIGHTS and LABELED, POST-ITS, and/or CIRCLED/STARRED and LABELED? 
• DID I tie the article's points to VISUALS/PICTURES/MAPS within the text?
• Have I used comments and underlines/arrows/brackets/stars WITH MEANING/PURPOSE and NOT just random notes that mean nothing??

**CONSIDERING THE QU'S ABOVE and whatever works best for you, MAKE SURE YOU have some substantial observations/ANNOTATIONS to bring to discussion/to show me during class Wednesday!

********************

**THE KEY: GIVE YOUR BEST EFFORT. MAKE YOUR WORK COUNT. 

**THIS ANNOTATING TASK FOR THIS "The Price of Fast Fashion" article IS FOR A GRADE.

*********************

**Here's also a LINK to an annotated FICTION text to use as a 'guide' if you'd like (although your text is NONFICTION, the end-result is similar):
