You will be reading Chapters 1-15 of The Scarlet Letter over break. You are going to skip the chapter "The Custom House" and begin with the chapter "The Prison Door". You will be expected to post at least twice to topics in the Turnitin discussion forum. There is a practice topic available now if you want to test it out, but real topics won't be posted until next week. Please make sure that your posts are academic, appropriate, and represent you and your school in a positive way. If you encounter a post that is inappropriate, please email me. If you have no internet access, you can make up this assignment in a different way when you return from break.
Please keep track of vocabulary words that are new to you as you are doing your reading. You will need to demonstrate your new vocab acquisition during the week of December 5th. The method of showing your new vocab is up to you: you may choose to make a list with definitions, flash cards, a quizlet, post-it notes in your book--whatever works best for your brain.
