Homework due Thursday 1/16 + Friday 1/17

NOTE: You don't need to bring your Pre-AP readers this week.  
 
Assignment 1 of 3:
Take a screenshot on your Chromebook of your lexile score from August.  Be ready to show this to me in the next class (unless you joined us after August and haven't taken the LevelSet test yet).
 
1)  Log in to achieve3000.com.  Select the class with "LevelSet" in the name.
2)  Scroll down your homepage to find the horizontal green bar with your score.
3)  Hold down the CTRL and "switch" keys together to take a screenshot.
4)  Locate this screenshot file in your "downloads" section.  Rename it and/or move it to a folder where you will be able to find it easily when asked.
 
FYI: the "switch" key is in the top row on the keyboard and looks like a rectangle with two vertical lines on its right.
 
 
Assignment 2 of 3:
Finish both sides of the "Pathways to the World of Careers" handout you received in class.  That means ...
 
1)  Identify the two career clusters you scored highest in (e.g., business careers and health careers)
2)  List interests connected to these careers (feel free to copy what's written on slide 14 from the PowerPoint uploaded to Google Classroom)
3)  List 5+ careers connected to these career clusters (e.g., bookkeeper, realtor, finance, insurance and paralegal for "business careers")
4)  Define what people who have either of these jobs do (e.g., A realtor is someone who arranges the buying and selling of houses.  A banker is someone who helps people manage their savings).
 
 
Assignment 3 of 3 (ongoing):
 
Choose a book to read for your IRP and get your book approved on/by Friday, February 28th.  Your IRP approval worksheet should be completed on/by Friday, February 28th too and should be turned in to me.
 
Digital copies of the IRP approval worksheet, IRP book selection guidelines and the AP list are all uploaded to Google Classroom.  
 
A FAQ (frequently asked questions) document with how to get your book approved is also available on Google Classroom.
