Hello All,
Progress reports were sent home last week. Of course, if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free.

10th World Lit:
This week we're finishing up our posters before presenting our Mid Unit Benchmarks. A copy of the background powerpoint will be posted on the blog if you want to print it out before class to take notes on while we go through the PPT in class.
Yearbook:
Our first deadline is this Sunday. I'm attempting to arrange a pizza party to work late next Wednesday after we go over the pages for your final grade. More information TBA.

Fall Break Extra Credit -- World Lit
Hello all,
All World Literature students are being given the opportunity to complete some extra credit over the course of the Fall Break.
Click here for the options for the assignment. Please make sure you read all of the instructions and requirements carefully.
Yearbook students have been given an extension on some of their deadlines in lieu of extra credit. Please see the Yearbook Calendar and note the new deadlines. However, if they want to participate in the last option on the World Lit Extra, I will put that letter as a 10 point published deadline extra credit.
I hope you have a great break!

Week 6
Hello All,
Progress Reports come out the week we come back from September Break, so make sure you use this week to catch up on whatever you need to in order to get your grades where you want them before the Progress Report.
10th World Lit (Honors and On Level)
This week we're doing targeted practice for the GHSWT and the AP test in a synthesis argument essay. The articles are available in the classroom only, but the rubric is on the blog. The deadline for this is on Friday, but there is an incentive for the students to finish by Thursday.
Yearbook
If you are not happy with your grade, you have this week to make your page happen. We have a couple of more draft deadlines before your pages are due, so use this week to get pictures, interviews, and captions. If you turn in your page early, you can earn extra credit.

Week 5
Hello all,
This week the World Lit students finished up their first unit. They'll also have their first vocabulary quiz next Monday. The link for the first 10 words' flashcards is on the resources page. Also, if you didn't buy a vocabulary book, they will be on sale in Ms. Coane's room on Monday from 7:45-8:15.
Yearbook has had their first assignment due and some students are 100% on top of their assignments, and some students are not. They're grades will reflect this. You can make it up, but you'll have to catch up and quickly to make up for lost time.
