Parent Information
Students had a mini-research paper due before class today, March 7. We worked on it four days in class last week. Students also had time to research a couple of days in previous weeks. Students who did not turn this in will receive points deducted from the assignment and it is considered late. I will not be grading these assignments yet. I plan to give the students feedback, allow them time to make revisions, and base the final test grade on their revised paper; bear with me on the time it will take. The most important thing for now is to be sure your child has turned in something that I can read.
Spring Break is next week! After spring break, we will begin literary circles with a book from the AP reading list. Students will need to read at home.
Our End of Course Exam is March 29th. Mark your calendar to be sure your child attends school that day.
