During this time, students will memorize the conjugations of common irregular verbs. I have told the students that this is material that they can memorize without me, and I am leaving plenty of practice material. They will have quizzes on the memorized material each Friday. I am also instructing the substitute to take up all classwork,and I will give students grades on completing the activities. Therefore, if students stay on task, they should earn some easy 100's. On Monday, Feb. 6, students will receive information about an optional extra credit project that is due Tuesday, Feb. 21. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at cdrew@spsd.k12.ms.us. On a personal note, I covet your prayers on Ronnie's behalf.

Students who have made below a 70 on any grade and others who wish to will retest on Tuesday, 9/27. Students needing to retest were advised of this last week, so I hope that they have been preparing.

Students will have a quiz on these verbs next Tues., Oct.4. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sept. 19-23 There will be a UNIT test Wed. (9/21) covering all verbs and conversations, so we will spend Monday & Tuesday preparing for it. Afterwards, we will delve into some Hispanic culture. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have a really crazy schedule this year. I will be at Pope for 1st period, at SPHS for 3rd & 4th, and at BJHS for 6th & 7th. All make-up work needs to be done in a timely manner. It's really important for students to be here every day because it's difficult to learn a language just from notes. Any time a student is not happy with a grade, he or she may take a retest within 5 working days. The original grade will be averaged with the new grade. Whenever a student needs to make up a grade or wants extra help, he or she needs to talk to me. For my Pope students, I can arrive early and work with them during home room. For the Batesville students, I can make arrangements to stay later at either school or possibly work something out during 5th period.
