Week 10--Grade Recovery and Vocabulary
Hello All,
As a reminder your Grade Recovery Opportunity is due on Wednesday by 11:59. Make sure you're following all of the directions and criteria or you won't earn credit.
This week we're finishing up our Poetry Powerpoints--the first presentations will be on Friday (those who sign up for Friday will receive 5 extra points).
Your Parallel Reading first drafts were due on Monday. Check the calendar for upcoming deadlines and your Parallel Reading Packet for details. No matter how behind you are, you ABSOLUTELY NEED to have a draft, handwritten or typed, by March 27 (preferably with revisions and editing). We'll be in the Writting Lab with the sole purpose of putting your drafts into MLA format and submitting them to turnitin.com. If your draft isn't done by then, 1) it's 3 weeks late and 2) you won't have my help in getting your MLA perfect.
Since we have so much going on with Parallel Reading and your Poetry Projects, we've decided to skip unit 10 of vocabulary. We'll resume our vocabulary study on March 25th with a miniquiz on Unit 11--you should be working on the unit 11 workbook on March 19th.
