Homework


Updating early for tomorrow and next week because I won't be here to update! I'll be in (nasally accent) Flaw-ri-dah seeing thu' baaay-bee!

November 23-24- I will have a substitute for these two days. Students are responsible for completing the immigration unit work and being prepared to hand it in to me on November 30. Don't forget that classes are going to visit the BMS bookfair on December 1. If you want to make a purchase, bring money on that day or come to the Open House that night in the Media Center from 5-8. Homework both nights: make sure that all immigration unit work is done or will be done over the holiday weekend, make sure that permission slips, money, and report card envelopes have been returned to the advisory teacher in a timely manner, have a lovely fall break. Cheers!


November 20- Students will travel to the library for our renewing/checking out of materials. Upon their return, they will work on the immigration unit. I will collect end-term reports for the last time until November 30 when the grade will not be a 100.  Homework over the weekend: get report card envelope signed, return the yellow permission slip and $3.00 for our December 18th trip to the Lyric to see The Mighty, and work on the immigration unit as needed. Have a wonderful weekend and a terrific holiday.

November 19- Today I collected end-term reports and handed out book fair flyers for our class visit on December 1. Tomorrow is the last day I will collect end term reports for a 100. After that the grade drops and I am NOT asking the sub to collect them while I am gone next week. I will re-ask for end-term reports on Monday, November 30th. Students continued to work through the immigration unit folder. Homework: Get end-terms signed and returned, bring library books tomorrow for our library visit, work on immigration research/work if necessary. 2 more days before the granddaughter is held by Grandma and great-grandparents! 

November 18
- Today, I collected end-term reports or had students highlight the lack of bringing it back in their assignment book as a reminder to bring it by Friday. Please remember, it is a grade. Students continued their immigration unit work.
REMINDERS:
All folder work and final copies of paragraphs and essays are due on November 30.
Paragraphs are individually done; essays are a group effort.
All folder work is individually done.
We are going to the library on Friday.
Report cards go home on Friday
I will be gone Monday and Tuesday of next week.
HOMEWORK: get end-term reports signed and returned, complete any immigration unit work that will help you be successful on Thursday.
Stay warm.
 
November 17- Today I handed out end-term reports and I need them signed and returned by Friday. They are a grade and I don't want my substitute next Monday and Tuesday having to collect the stragglers. Students worked on the immigration unit throughout the class period. A lovely day.  Homework: get end-term signed and returned, complete any immigration work in order to be successful in class tomorrow. Remember our Wednesday workshops. If a student needs to catch up a little in English, I am here until 3:30 that day. I just need a note stating they have permission to stay and that they have a ride at 3:30. Stay warm in the impending temperature changes.
 
November 16- Monday it is! And the first day of the 3rd six weeks. I have updated the calendar page and the notebook items page for your information. Next Monday, Lord willing, I will have been spending the last two days holding my new granddaughter! I'm leaving Saturday with my folks to travel to Fort Walton Beach, Florida to see the newest addition to our family tree! Happy Thanksgiving! This week, I am having the students continue with their Immigration unit work. I handed out a progress sheet today. Students were to individually look at how much they have accomplished and how much more they have to do along with deciding on the group essay topic and who will research which part of that essay. Homework: continue any immigration work left over from class that will allow success tomorrow. We do have library day on Friday. Please have library/personal reading books in class that day for library credit. I will be handing out end-term reports tomorrow to be signed by Friday. I don't want the sub to have to bother with collecting these while I am gone. Have an enjoyable afternoon.
