Hello! While I am still out on maternity leave until the new card marking begins, I want to post some reminders on here that will help students understand what is required of them for homework this card marking. Please read all of the information below. Contact my substitute if you have any questions (prosij@dearbornschools.org).
Homework – all due by end of class October 25th:
1. One-Pager #1 – Students must use a novel they are currently reading, NOT same novel they did summer assignment on. NO graphic novels, if it has pictures it cannot be used for One-Pager. FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS EXACTLY. Normally you would be required to turn in 2 One-Pagers but since I am not there to guide you along, 1 is required this card-marking only. (20 summative points)
2. Students must have 30 Read Theory quizzes passed between the dates of September 23-November 1st – this is the only assignment due by November 1st (the last day of the card marking). Students have time during the week to work on this in class but it is homework if not completed by end of every week. 5 quizzes must be passed every week to keep up. Students can check their quizzes passed in their “My Progress” tab – an image is shared below on how to do so.
All Read Theory grades will be updated by MONDAY every week, if your quizzes aren’t done on time you MUST WAIT for your grades to be updated until the following Monday. (60 formative points)
To check your quizzes, follow the directions in the picture below.
3. Moby Max – I assigned the following lessons to prepare for and provide the students practice during our Parts of Speech unit:
- Parts of Speech Overview Lesson (10 points) & Assessment (10 points)
- Nouns Lesson (10 points) & Assessment (10 points)
- Proper Nouns Lesson (10 points) & Assessment (10 points)
- Possessive Nouns Lesson (10 points) & Assessment (10 points)
- Plural Nouns Lesson (10 points) & Assessment (10 points)
Moby Max Information– Students must sign in through CLEVER on the Dearborn student page. You can find them under the “Language” button or the “Assignments” tab. This is HOMEWORK, they will not be given class time to complete this, silent reading time is for novels or Read Theory ONLY. Each lesson is worth 10 points and each assessment is worth 10 points. Students must receive an 85% or higher for all 10 points on each. I will reassign any that are lower so they may redo for a higher score, otherwise they will receive the percentage earned. I will not respond to email requests asking me to reset, I will reset every eligible lesson on Monday and Friday until the due date. If you do not redo the lesson or assessment before October 25th, you will get the percentage earned. This is worth 100 points total (formative), it is not something you want to forget about!
Can’t wait to meet you all when I return in November!
