<p>I was given a summer assignment to read two books (totaling 25 chapters) and write annotations on them. I also had to write a 500 word essay, and then do a vocabulary list. I've typed 16/25 of the Chapter's Annotations, and typed up the essay and vocabulary. Currently this uses up 8 pages on standard font. So I still have about 9 chapters of typing to do (I've already written them, it's just a matter of copying them down.) It looks like this'll use up around 14 pages of work. And Each Chapter Annotation is taking up about 1/3 of the page. So am I overthinking this. (It's for 9th grade Honors English.)</p>
<p>you’re over thinking the length. just do the notes, and don’t worry about how much space it’s taking up</p>
<p>Wow!! That’s a big assignment for 9th grade!! We only have to read a book. If we want, we can comment on a blog!! I’m going to go to 9th grade too. I’m also taking honors english, but this reading is for the whole school, not for a class. Anyway, did your teacher have a limit on how many you should take up? Also, what’s an annotation? Do you go to a private school?</p>
<p>Yeah, you’re overthinking the length. Just do a thorough job. My summer assignment for AP Bio two years ago was 50 pages single spaced.</p>
<p>He said Annotations are notes you make as you read, about the themes, characters, etc.
He said they need to cover the scope of the text. and the only length thing he said was that the essay needed to be approx. 400-500 words. and that we needed at least 25 vocab. words</p>
<p>Usually annotations for my English classes were little notes taken in the margins of the book. I don’t think the teacher will care how long the annotations are, although make sure he/she didn’t want the notes done a certain way ;D.</p>
<p>lol I don’t even have any homework!! 
except an entire geometry course… 
and a math packet that i’m not doing</p>
