Grades have been updated. Please check HAC!

Grades for the third marking period are almost done for me.  

The end of the 3rd marking period is next Friday. 

 This week we have three days of testing in class. 

 We are also in the middle of the Diary of Anne Frank.  






Upcoming Grades for 3rd MP
  1. Quiz on the first three groups of words tomorrow, Monday.
  2. Completed Diary of Anne Frank What You Should Know sheet (Graded on completion)

Upcoming Grades probably counting for 4th MP
  1. Multiple choice test on the Diary of Anne Frank
  2. Diagram of characters which shows characterization, conflicts, quotes. (More about this later)
  3. Section 1: recreate the introduction of Mr. Dussel to the families in the attic.  This will be a group project where students write a script and act it out for the class.  It will be recorded.
  4. Sections 2 and 3: I need to see what these classes would like to do.  I have some options.  

Here are the summative assignments we have done this marking period.  We have done a lot of writing.  I hope the students are prepared for the Smarter Balance tests.  I have been practicing what they need to do for the both types of writing they will see on the test.
