White Day - 12.06.12

CP10: If you did not meet your in-class goal for the day, you are assigned a mandatory work block on Monday afternoon. Skipping (unless you have a note from a parent IN ADVANCE, not the next day or two days later) will result in a write-up. Here is a reminder of the goals:

If you have already done this............................you must finish this:

1. An incomplete outline..................................A finished outline and introduction
2. A finished outline and introduction..............Three body paragraphs
3. Three body paragraphs.................................Peer edit, adult edit, and a draft of your conclusion

The only way "out" of that assigned work time is to be completely caught up at the start of class on Monday: being completely caught up means having a full draft of your essay and feedback from at least one peer AND an adult (either Mrs. Gay, another teacher, or a parent).

H10: Memorize your poem! Practice your recitation, keeping in mind the tips and tools located here: Poetry Out Loud recitation tips. Be ready to do a practice recitation and receive LOTS of helpful feedback on Tuesday. Our in-class competition will be on Thursday!
