Week 15--Unofficial Progress Report

Hello All!

We are getting so close to the end--just 2 more full weeks until the EOCT and less than 5 weeks until the end of the year!

Since Official Progress Reports were sent home on Wednesday, today (Friday, April 20th) I sent home Unofficial Progress Reports.  I need these signed and returned on Monday.  We're in the last stretch.  Make up work is accepted for all work due after 4/10, but as stated in the syllabus, a penalty of 1 letter grade per day late applies.  Many students need to focus in these last few weeks, turn in everything *on time* if they want to pass.  Of course, to those of you who are doing what you're suppose to do, as always, thank you.

This week we'll be continuing to read TEWWG.  (1st block is in the middle of chapter 2. 3rd block finished chapter 3.  4th block is in the middle of chapter 2.)  The Powerpoint that we use in class for the In-Class Responses is on the Resource page, as well as the PowerPoint going over the requirements for the Blue Reading Folder (mostly a reitteration of page 1 of the packet).  Remember, the Reading Folder is the Giant Project for this unit.  Make sure you're keeping up with it and keeping everything in your 3-pronged Folder.

By the end of this week, I hope to finish through chapter 10, but we'll see how quickly each class reads. 

The word of the week is incentive.  Write it on a piece of paper and give it to me for a ticket.  If you tell me how the word of the week is an incentive, I'll give you an extra ticket.
