Last week we finished up our Precourse Reading assignments in all classes and started working on our new Springboard curriculum.
A couple of reminders:
- Every other Friday we will have a vocabulary quiz. It is your responsibility to know, understand, use and ask questions about these words before the quiz. We go over them in our warmups and it's a part of your responsibility even if you are not present for a day.
- Next week we'll be starting our Independent Reading Assignment. We'll be talking more about this on Monday in our On Level Classes, while Honors classes are aware that we will start Poisonwood Bible and they need to obtain a copy of the text.
- If you want to win some prizes from Q100, click here to register. Prizes will be given out after school, after the pep rally, on Friday.
- You should be able to see your grades in my class. Some grades are in, some are not. I try to get the quick grades in first, but please give me time on the bigger grades to read and analyze them fairly.
- Open House is next Tuesday. I would love see you so much that I will give you extra credit if you bring your parents. I will also give you extra credit if your parents show up without you, or if they email me. The point of Open House is so that we can meet each other so I'd like to do that. 10th Grade parents should attend between 6:30-8.
- We've started our work in our Springboard textbooks. I cannot post the link on here because the text is copyrighted, but I posted the link in the Resources Page, as you had to log in to see that link. If you need to follow up with any homework from what we didn't finish in class, the Resources Page is where you find the Springboard Online Textbook link.
Also, the solar eclipse is today. Please be careful as looking at the sun, during an eclipse or not, can make you go blind. We've been talking about what you need to do to be safe in class and you can find more information at https://www.nasa.gov/eclipse2017.
Happy Monday!
