WRAP-UP INSTRUCTIONS
Briefly review the material you have covered in the assigned reading and identify three lessons and two puzzles.
Use the wrap-up form to record your lessons and puzzles. The gray boxes will expand as you type. Before you began writing, save the form to your computer. When you are ready to submit your work, please follow closely the instructions on the form.
Lessons are things you found to be important: perhaps an event you knew nothing about, a perspective on history that surprised you, a story or piece of information you want to remember, and so on. Puzzles are things that you don’t understand or would like to know more about, or things that seem strange to you.
It is very important to include specific information, preferably with page references. The wrap-up is not only a written assignment but also a basis for class discussion.
How will lessons and puzzles be graded? Each one needs to show that you have done the reading and thought about it. There is no right or wrong answer. What counts is what you learned (lessons) and what you don’t yet know or fully understand (puzzles).
