Work for vacation

Your homework for break is to read chapter 20 and take notes on it; when you return you will have an open notes reading quiz.

Tips for reading and staying focused:

Before reading you should look over the major headings in the chapter and look at the pictures. Read the captions! It costs more money to have a color picture than black text, if publishers are spending money on it, it is there to help you.

Before reading the chapter you should read the section summaries at the end of the chapter to help you keep the big picture in mind.

While reading you should read through an entire paragraph and try not to get hung up on specific details. After reading the paragraph, if you are still confused look to the pictures for clarification.

After reading a section (20.1) close your eyes and try to state 3-4 key points in the section.
