Monday, December 16th

Happy Last School Week of 2019! We are in school all week – the last day for students is Friday, December 20th. We return Monday, January 6th, from break.

Marking Period 2 started November 4th and runs through January 17, 2020. ALL LATE WORK FOR MP2 WILL BE DUE ON FRIDAY, JANUARY 10th. 1/10/20 falls on the Friday we return from Winter Break. Students will receive a missing work list by Wednesday, December 18th.

The FINAL DRAFT of the compare/contrast paper is DUE WEDNESDAY, 12/18. It CAN be typed; students are responsible for printing their own paper. Our school library can be used to print the papers.

A RUBRIC WAS HANDED OUT DETAILING EXPECTATIONS, AND CAN ALSO BE FOUND IN GOOGLE CLASSROOM.

Last week’s reading journal is due today.

There will be no assigned homework over break, other than the expectation that students are doing daily reading. Late work is due January 10th; this is a great time to get that completed!

Wednesday, December 18th, is a LATE START.

Library time is scheduled every week (mostly on Friday). I am happy to send students to the library before Friday if it is needed. Students may check out 3 library books at one time. Students must have a barcode on their planner to check out a book until we have student ID’s.

Students who are one or more minutes late to class will be marked Tardy. At 3 tardies, I will contact home via email, and copy the front office on the email. At 4 tardies, students will be referred to the office AND serve a lunch detention. An updated copy of our tardy policy is on my blog!

Please add yourselves to our classroom Remind account! I will be sending important information throughout the year via Remind text. Use the link: rmd.at/h8cchc OR text the message @h8cchc to 831-613-1863

Email is the best way to contact me. My email is: thompsc@dearbornschools.org
