• citing textual evidence
• determining the central idea of a text
• reading complex texts independently as the year progresses
• writing arguments to support claims with clear evidence
• produce clear and coherent writing assignments
• the analysis of historical primary sources 
• Be ready for class; use a place in your home free from distractions
• Complete the attendance task, even on school days that you do not have history
