As we draw nearer to the end of the first quarter, I thought I'd create a short posting which lists some of the upcoming due dates for work in your child's R/W literature class. I would encourage you to ask your kids where they are at in terms of this list of work.
Friday, Oct. 19th - Miracle's Boys needs to be finished. We will be reading an article that day taking a look at if the food stamp program creates dependency - which we will then relate to the characters from Miracle's Boys.
Wednesday, Oct. 24th - Final test on Miracle's Boys. Students will receive the details of the test on Monday, Oct. 29th.
Monday, Oct. 29th - Kidblog book review posting is due - submitted for approval electronically - by 10:00 PM on Monday night. Students will have had three full days of class this first quarter to work and get help on their posting.
Friday, Nov. 2nd - All page logs will be totaled, collected, and recorded for the first quarter grading period.
As I had mentioned in an earlier posting, we have had very few grades put into the grade book from the first two-thirds of quarter one. At this point more grades are starting to come in; so, depending on the quality of your child's work, you may see his/her grade changing on a frequent basis. Grades will become final on Wednesday, November 7th.
If you have any additional questions or need clarification on anything in this post, please send me an email or give me phone call.
