My dear students,
It's Week 2 and we are hitting our only grammar-intensive unit of the semester. My suggestion is to watch those Schoolhouse Rock videos, especially if your learning style is visual or musical. Call the Help Desk if you have trouble opening or viewing the videos. If you wish to have a quiz reset, please call me or email to set up a WebEx appointment to talk. We need to go over the material to find out what you need to correct, and I may retest you over the phone / WebEx.
It has come to my attention that the Help Desk hours were not posted in the classroom until late last week. This affected your ability to find information for your Scavenger Hunts. Please accept my apologies! They are Monday - Friday 8:30am to 8:30pm and Saturday 8:30am to 7:30pm. In the future, if you cannot find something in the classroom that you need to finish an assignment, please call or email me immediately so I can fix the problem. I may award some extra credit points for this help!
Speaking of the Scavenger Hunt as well as Extra Credit, make sure you can locate the Discussion Board under Classroom Tools. You can earn up to ten extra credit points this week by responding to the two Bell Ringers there. This is the last week I will have more than one available at once. After this, I close all Bell Ringers on Friday evening. Check it out and submit your thoughts!
Each week, a different English IV teacher will host the optional Back and Forth session. Get a new perspective of what we've covered and look ahead to what we're doing next! This week's Back and Forth host will be Ms. Dark. Join her tonight at 7pm in the usual place. I may stop in to say hello!
--Mrs. Fiddle
