Homework

 
1st Block Reading 9-12 grade

2nd Block is Jr. English.  At the beginning we focus on the Writing 
Assessment.  We review the 5 paragraph essay format and practice writing 
with 
different prompts and review papers that have been written from specific 
topics.
We also have daily journals, every 10 a grade is taken.  Each journal can 
earn you 10 points.

3rd Block Senior English  

This year on occasion we are using watercolor paint and listening to 
different types of music and painting our thoughts and feelings about the 
music.  The students seem to enjoy this and it gives them a break from the 
everyday writing.  

If a student does not complete an assignment in class, they are encouraged 
to 
take home a book and complete the assignment.  If they are absent and it is 
excused they can do the same.  If a student has a hard time writing on a 
journal topic they can take it home and work on it.  I give the students 
every opportunity to be successful.  If they are not then they gave up and 
didn't try.  Every student can be successful if they put forth their best 
effort and pay attention in class and complete all work.
