Quiz and Jeanne d'Albret

Complete the Quiz for Week 13.  Helps are not permissible; it is closed book and closed notes.

Write your history card for Mary, Queen of Scots, from lesson 40.

Then, read lesson 41 and write a summary for this lesson as well.

To be due this next Tuesday, complete the following history writing exercises below:

Choice A:  Write about the life of Jeanne d'Albret as if you were writing an entry about her for an encyclopedia.  The paper should be five to six paragraphs long but nothing you write should be someone else's words.  You must give an overview of her life in your own words.  Use lesson 41 and this article here for your information.

Choice B:  Write a report on the symptoms and treatment of tuberculosis.  Be sure that you do not plagiarize the words of the sources that you choose to use.  This report should be a minimum of three very well developed paragraphs.

Note:  I will be noting your use of verbals in your writing, which you have been learning in grammar!
