This week, all of the assignments required can be found in Google Classroom:
1. Shakespeare Act 1 Scene 1: 4/20-4/26. This week you are continuing with Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare. You need to read Act 1 Scene 1, watch the 9 minute video depicting Act 1 Scene 1, and read the summaries for Act 1 Scenes 2-4. Please have Act 1 Scene 1 read by our Google Hangout.
2. IXL. This week your focus is on Main Idea (A.1). You need to complete to mastery, which is 90+ score. I have posted a video on how to find the language arts skills in Google Classroom.
3. SSR. You are still required to be reading books on your own! You will need to read two books over the next few months and post to FlipGrid. I have posted a video on how to use FlipGrid as well.
4. Google Meet. Google meets are now required and part of your grade. Below is the schedule for that. I have attached a video below on how to get there, because the link will now be posted in Google Classroom. The link will be available the day of our Google Meet.

Grading and Google Hangouts:
Starting this week, everything counts towards your final grade in this class. If you complete:
75% of the assignments (including Google Meets) = A
60-74% of the assignments (including Google Meets) = G (this means you get credit but it doesn’t help nor hurt you)
59% or below: You don’t get any credit and you will have to retake the class for credit.
I will be explaining this in more depth during our Google Meet. For further clarification now, here is Ms. Alcodray’s video explaining the new policy: https://drive.google.com/file/d/19Kdr-ECZgQcXDqFbPfsBaKkCIkFDws6/view
