Reading: Assignment -
Student Reading Diary
Instructions:
This assignment involves writing a daily diary for 10 weeks. You are
required to keep a log of what you are reading outside of the classroom. For
the second semester, the log is in the form of a diary.
Begin writing at the
start of week 2 and finish at the end of week 11. Hand in your completed
diary in week 12.
You are required to read
at least one thing in English per day. Using the attached pages, complete
your diary as instructed, writing clearly in pen. Only include things you
read in your own time NOT anything that you read in lessons. Bring your
diary to lessons so it will be checked every few weeks.
Assessment: This assignment is worth 25% of the
second semester reading course. Marks will be awarded as shown on the mark
sheet included in this diary.
You are advised to keep
a copy of your diary in case you lose it - only complete diaries will be
marked.
Plagiarism, cheating or
collusion will result in a mark of zero. Failure to complete all of the
instructions will also result in a mark of zero. Below 60% is a fail, there
will not be any re-submissions for failed assignments. Marks will not be
deducted for spelling, punctuation and grammar unless your writing is
illegible.
