Homework:
- Sections 2 and 3 have the Unit 2 vocab quiz tomorrow.
- Section 2 will finish their Raymond's Run extended response questions tomorrow.
- Section 1 should do 11-20 Completing the Sentence Unit 2.
- Section 1 will also have a practice quiz (or real if good) on unit 2 tomorrow. (They won't be able to take the quiz until Wednesday because of DCAS. Why not get it done now?)
- Section 1 should continue reading Raymond's Run at home. They are to be summarizing. We can't get it all done in class.
- Section 1 is spent time Raymond's Run and reviewing vocab.
- Sections 2 and 3 finished the presentations and took the test on Raymond's Run.
Grades:
- I hope you will excuse me as I work my way through the new grading system implemented by the district. I am also trying to use 100% in every box so I can get averages easier. I am using weights. In other words, the smallest assignments are worth 1. An assignment that has a weight of 2 is worth twice as much, meaning I value its worth more. Likewise, something weighted at 3 is more important, and something with a weight of 4 is valued the most.
- I am still trying to use formative and summative correctly. We are half way through the MP. There are many more assignments to come. I hope to become more predictable with my assignments as the year continues.
