Bonus Points for English 11

A reminder before we begin Trimester II, bonus points can be earned only by students who have ALL the assignments completed.

Keep that in mind.

Grade Concerns from Trimester 1

I am keeping Tuesday, December 2nd open after school for students to come in to chat about grade concerns that they have from first trimester. This is the only time I am dedicating to this task.

If something has been recorded incorrectly, simply give me the document with an explanation attached. No need to come in.

Grades

Hey Folks,
I've turned off the grade publishing for school view. I am working hard to get things graded and entered, and I need to focus on that. When I am finished entering everything, I will switch it back on.

Compare/Contrast Paper Bonus

Oops.
I goofed. I added in five bonus points originally rather than ten. I have rectified it.

Compare/Contrast Papers

I have completed assessing and entering the scores on the papers. I have also updated the process grades.

I will return tomorrow. I hope to have the papers in folders by Thursday.

If I have made a clerical error, please point it out on a blue slip and submit it to me with a clear explanation.

If you want to discuss a particular element of my assessment of your paper, please take the weekend to develop a CEW argument for your position. Be sure to find specific evidence in your paper to support the claim you are making. I will set aside time Monday after school to entertain those discussions. I will not take class time to do it, so plan ahead.

See you Wednesday!

Conferencing on Papers

Hey Folks,
Friday, October 31st was the deadline for me to conference on papers. I cannot do it via email.

I would suggest reading your paper aloud to an interested parent. Have him/her stop you every time something confuses them. Just mark the place and move forward. When you finish, fix the places they suggested.

Good luck!
