Week 7, Sophomore Teeshirts, Hurricane Donations, and September Break Grade Recovery

Hello Students,

This week we're finishing up with Unit 1.  Embedded Assessment 2 is due in class and is a group assignment.  If you have any questions for how to turn it in (hint: turnitin.com) please ask before the end of the week.  Your Independent Reading assignment is also due before you leave.  When we come back, we're going to be starting fresh with Unit 2.

(Honors students: as a head's up, the next outside reading we're going to do is the play Doll House by Henrik Ibsen.  We're using a copy write free, online version, so you'll need to bring your devices, charged, to class so we can reference the text).

If you would like a Sophomore Class Shirt, you can turn in your Sophomore Class Dues ($25) to me by Friday (I'm the Class Sponsor).  If you would like to help the Sophomore Class create a float for the Homecoming Parade, also talk to me--it'll be amazing if you outshine the senior class.

We are collecting items to help the victims of the recent hurricanes.  The county is coming to pick these up on Friday after school, so if you can, please bring at least one of the following Thursday or Friday.

  • Baby products (wipes and diapers)
  • Chapstick
  • Comb/brush
  • Conditioner 
  • Deodorant
  • Feminine hygiene products
  • First aid items (bandages and Neosporin)
  • Flip flops
  • Lotion
  • Razors
  • Reusable water bottle
  • Sanitizer
  • Shampoo 
  • Soap 
  • Socks 
  • Sunscreen
  • Toothbrush
  • Toothpaste
  • Underwear (ALL)
  • Wash cloth

During the break, I'm giving students the opportunity to do some grade recovery.  For students who earned a poor grade on their Precourse Reading and/or their Embedded Assessment 1, you can complete the matching Grade Recovery assignment on the Resources Page.  Please follow all of the directions and ask me any questions you have before the end of the week.

Happy two more wake ups until Break!
