IEP – Higher Order Thinking Tasks

This is your individual education program contract. Each question is worth a certain number of points. Some questions are worth more than others because of the degree of thinking skills involved in answering them. You must total over 30 points. Your work is to be presented in your Humanities book. You will be allocated time in Language Groups to complete the tasks. Your Science/Humanities Investigation Task details can be accessed on the Science page.
