  • The purpose of locks, the locksmith said, is to protect you from the 98% of mostly honest people who might be tempted to try your door if it had no lock

    Hello All,

    For AOW, annotate at least three times. Please note that although I have posted a few articles, they have not been assigned. But if you want to read them ahead of time and share your thoughts, go for it!

    Remember, when writing your AOW, it may be helpful to think of the Essential Questions that the article addresses. In this way, you will surely get to the heart of the matter, and reach a more critical level of thinking rather than merely summarizing or demonstrating comprehension.

    :) Mrs. N.
