Homework Info: 9/30/11

Just a friendly reminder that by Monday you need to finish annotating your copy of "Harrison Bergeron" (the circles, squares, underlining "stuff"), complete the plot map, and finish up the questions given in class by the substitute.  I will check all this on Monday BEFORE our class discussion! Have a great weekend!

TEST IS TOMORROW!

...instead of Tuesday.  This will give you one more day to touch base with your partner for the 2 Voice Poems and finish it if necessary.  Spread the word to everyone!

SUMMATIVE GRADES!

The two-voice poem is due Monday! Only one more class period to finish writing it, so make sure you are ready to work tomorrow. And the test over "The Most Dangerous Game" is on Tuesday, so be ready! :-)

Yaarrrrg...Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day, mateys and scallywags.  Some important things to remember this week:

1. Homework tonight is to draw a symbol for Rainsford (and color it!!) and complete the "actions" part of the Rainsford character chart.
2. IANs are due this week (pp.26-31).  1st/3rd on Tuesday, 4th/5th on Wednesday, 6th/7th on Thursday.  Make sure they are complete and turn them in!
3.  Picture day is Wednesday.  Make sure you look cute or whatever!  ;)
4. The first two summative grades are this week:  Two-Voice Poems and a test.  Make sure you ask any questions about "The Most Dangerous Game" if you have them!

Let's have a great rest of the week!

Homework (9/16) other IMPORTANT info

Just a friendly reminder that there was a homework assignment this weekend.  You were to create a symbol to represent a trait of Zaroff (p.30-IAN and should include color!!!!).  Also, don't forget notebooks are due again this week.  Pages 26-31 will be graded.   Oh, and remember we will have 3 summative grades this week which will GREATLY affect your grades, so get ready to do some good work! :D

Homework 9/15/11

Make sure you finish your plot maps on "The Most Dangerous Game" tonight.  I will be checking (and stamping) them tomorrow before we go over it, so be ready!

Keep up the good work!

Great job with Mrs. Callegari today, students of mine!  Keep it up tomorrow, and push yourself as you do your first timed writing.  You can do it!  My training was interesting and inspiring today.  I have already gotten some ideas we will be using right away, so get ready!  Wow, learning really is awesome. =P

Current Grades...

I input the first interactive notebook grades today.  If you haven't been doing your work or didn't turn it in, your grade shows it now.  Everyone remember the good grades you want as you do your work with the substitute tomorrow and Tuesday (and EVERY DAY, really!).  I will enter the quizzes and participation for the Human Plotline this week.

No homework! :D

Enjoy your weekend!  And please, everyone remember to do all the work and behave for the substitute on Monday and Tuesday.  I will try to come to back from the training I am going to with awesome new ideas!
