May 26th-May 29th

Posted on by

ALL ASSIGNMENTS ARE POSTED ON ILEARN!! I am only allowing makeups of assignments assigned after April 13th. Anything before then was considered “enrichment” and students that completed on time earned a score. If you hear from your advisory teacher you have missing work in my class, you need to check student connect for your missing assignments and then email me to let me know you finished your work!

Next week is your last week of assignments. The last week of school is to turn in any projects and get caught up on missing assignments. I will not accept any missing assignments past Wednesday, June 10th @ 3:00 pm. I need time to make sure your grades are accurate before they are due on Thursday, June 11th for report cards.

This Week’s Homework:

  1. Go to iLearn & review the checklist created for the week under the “May 26th-May 29th Assignments (week 6)”
  2. View the recorded video lesson posted on iLearn (there is 1 this week reviewing chapters 15-17 with announcements)
  3. Go through the Characterization Review Lesson (I can see your progress on this and whether you finished it or not!) This will help prepare you for the Week 6 discussion.
  4. Read Chapters 18-20 of The Giver – if you don’t have the book it is posted under “The Giver Resources” on iLearn
  5. Complete The Giver Chapter 18-20 questions – THESE ARE ONLY ON ILEARN FROM NOW ON!!!
  6. Post in the “Week 6 Discussion” by Wednesday @ 3 pm
  7. Return to respond to another student in the “Week 6 Discussion” by Friday @ 3 pm

  9. ReadTheory – 5 passed this week (40 from April 13th-June 5th for full points – should be up to 35 this week)
  10. IXL – EE#5 (video support on iLearn) – all previous IXL skills are still starred if you are missing them
  11. Work on One-Pager # 7 and turn in by June 1st
  12. Work on The Giver End of Novel Project (One-Pager #8)

All assignments are due by 3:00 pm Friday.

Office Hours: Mondays 11:00 am – 1:00 pm, Thursdays 11:00 am – 1:00 pm, this means you can reach me by email quickly.

Quiz #2 THIS Friday (May 29th)

This quiz is on The Giver Chapters 9-15. The quiz opens at 12:01 am and closes at 11:59 pm. The retake is built into the quiz when you have 3 chances to get all questions correct (except true/false). You may also use The Giver book during the quiz to help you. I recommend looking the answers up to confirm them!!

Your final quiz will be on chapters 16-23, which will be NEXT Friday, June 5th – same directions as above.

One-Pager Information

  1. Continue reading your novel for One-Pager #7 (can NOT be The Giver) – This will be due June 1st. The turn in has been posted on Google Classroom.
  2. The Giver End of Novel Project IS One Pager #8 – the directions are posted on iLearn and Google Classroom. You have two choices for this project – pick 1 of them and follow the directions exactly. This is due Monday, June 8th by 3:00 pm.

Read Theory Make Up

We will continue to use Read Theory in the way we normally would for the remainder of the school year. You must pass 5 Read Theory quizzes each week through June 5th. That means you should be using April 13th as your start date and June 5th as your end date to check how many quizzes you have passed. If you have passed 5 quizzes each week, then on June 5th, the amount of quizzes you will have needed to pass for full credit will be 40.

I know some of you are behind on Read Theory for the year and need to make up quizzes for late work. I am going to give you the next eight weeks to work on making up those late assignments and improve your grade for the end of the year. For those of you who fall into this category, if you use September 23rd as your start date and June 5th as your end date and the amount of quizzes you have passed is 185, I will go back and give you full credit for all of your missing Read Theory from the year. This will not go back and change the grades on your report cards but it will help improve your year-long average at the end of the year. You must have both components to receive full credit for the entire school year. If you do not have late Read Theory, don’t worry, this will not apply to you. Should you decide to make these up, it is your responsibility to email me that you have 185 passed Read Theory from September 23rd-June 5th
