History Study Guides

It is that time of the year again when our minds turn to examinations and the opportunity to demonstrate the knowledge and understanding that we have acquired during the last semester.

There are a few things you can do to prepare for this exciting this event:

1. Read back through your workbook to review the work you have covered this semster

2. Check the Course Outline that you ought to have  glued into the front of your book.  Look for any missing work and either check with your teacher for copies of any handouts you did not get, or borrow a class-mate’s book to write up any missing notes.

3. Look closely at your course study guide.  Write summaries, or answers to the questions of each of the specifics of the course. You should refer to both your work book and relevant sections of the textbook to do this.

4.  If you have any further questions, speak to your classroom teacher.

Good luck

The Arthurian Legend

A quick trip through Google Books turned up the following texts that can be previews, search and read online.  They we gathered using Clipmarks.

Click on the books.google.com link to go to the specific text.

Once at the page, click on the “Preview this Book” button.  A handy thing then is to search for a key word (Arthur? Arthurian? Legend? Truth?).  The pages that are referenced are then available to clicking (sometimes a lot, sometimes a little).
