By choosing to take an Honors class, you are accepting responsibility for more independent work. All Honors students at Ayden-Grifton High School are expected to participate in the Independent Reading Assignment. Please refer to the information below for your requirements.

Novel: The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas (abridged)
It is your responsibility to get a copy of this book. You may purchase one, check one out from the local library, or wait until school begins and check one out from the AGHS library. Please note that you are being asked to read the ABRIDGED edition of this novel.

Assignments:
A Model Card Report. Use the example on the back of this sheet. This assignment should be completed in your words. You will be held accountable if you plagiarize.
**Due Date: The 1st day of the 2nd marking period – no exceptions

A Writing Assignment. Your teacher will guide you through this assignment. You should have a copy of the novel at the time this assignment is given for use in class. Copies can be checked out from the AGHS library.
**Due Date: Determined by teacher during the 2nd marking period

Grading:
The average of these 2 grades will count 33% (or 1/3) of your 2nd marking period average.

We suggest that you read the novel and complete the Model Card Report during the summer because you will have other assignments in all of your other classes once school begins. You may find that your time is limited.
