WHAT'S HAPPENING?????

All Classes:  For this weekend (or at least until Tuesday), you should be working towards that Reading Plus MINIMUM of 18 sessions.  Remember that a session doesn't end until you see that progress screen.  Be sure to complete reading and vocab each session.  For Word of the Day this week, you will create a graphic of one word from THIS WEEK (Nov. 30-Dec. 7) like the ones we have done in class.  There are some samples here on our blog under the General Paper column.

General Paper:  Your only HW is to complete Reading Plus.  Keep in mind that you will have the FCAT 2.0 Writing Field Test on Tuesday.  This is merely a pilot; however, you are EXPECTED to go FULL THROTTLE on this test and RACE TOWARDS a SIX!!!!!!  Your actual FCAT Writing exam won't be until the end of February.  (Period 4, we will be collecting your essays and your self-evaluations on Tuesday, so please bring them in.)

English Language:   You not only have to get caught up on Reading Plus, you must also do your Iola reading, and study for your vocab test.  Many have expressed that they're really immersed in our novel, which is always music to our ears.  Be sure to check the calendar for the chapters you must complete.  (Period 5, we are back on schedule, so be ready for a quiz on Chapters 9-15.)  Period 2, since I didn't collect them, you will submit your annotated article on Tuesday for last week. 

Thinking Skills: Be ready for a cumulative vocab quiz any minute! STUDY THOSE WORDS DAILY!

Know that we love and miss you DEARLY!

  3. If you got 18 sessions of Reading Plus done and you have the reading plus break pass. Do you still have to do 2 sessions of reading plus for tomorrow?
