How knowledgeable are you about sustainable fashion?
Every week we will look at a different issue concerning science and chemistry in our lives. We will look at how learning about science and chemistry can help us be well-informed and vocal individuals.

How do I grade Article Reviews?
Reviews will be graded in 2 parts
Part 1 will involve a pre-article questionaire (completed on Quizizz) and reading comprehension questions to be completed in your notebook on the first day.
Part 2 will involve analysis questions that will be checked in the following week's notebook check.
So for Part 2, you have one week to respond to those questions in your notebook before they are due.
3
Make sure to leave room for your Part 1 and 2 responses in your notebook.
If you think you will need two pages to complete the review, make a mark or note on the following page to leave it blank for the rest of the assignment.
