Hello All,
I really want you to succeed and have the best possible grade before you end this school year, so I'm offering the following contract to everyone to help you to show that you've met the standards.
- Your final exam is on Lord of the Flies. It is recommended that you re-read what we have read in class at home. Please make sure you are keeping up with your chapter by chapter study guide and quotes.
- You need to do well on the quiz, constructed response, and unit test on the Lord of the Flies. You already have the study guide and the constructed response instructions in your Packet.
- You may complete the extra credit assignment with diligence and care. You must accurately construct their map with details accurate to the book.
- You should make up all of their tests and quizzes which you missed due to absence by Wednesday, May 18th. We will have a day in class on May 17th for students to complete these tests and quizzes, however, if you need more time than one class period to complete the amount of missed tests and quizzes you must arrange times with me before or after school, or during 1st or 4th period--teacher permitting.
- You have the opportunity complete and turn in all writing assignments that you did not complete to turnitin.com. You will not earn full credit or even half credit, but I will allow you to earn a small amount of credit for assignments completed which followed the instructions and met the standards. Any points are better than the zero you currently have if you did not submit your assignments. The final day I will look at any past writing assignments is also Wednesday, May 18th, as I need time to grade the assignments before grades are due.
At this point it will require a lot of diligence and perseverance to pull up your grade. I sincerely hope you choose to put forth the effort required to meet the standards for the class. The choice, in the end, is yours.
We have 12 days of class left. You can do it.
