Wednesday, December 15

Back to school (sort of!)

Monday was the snow day, Tuesday was no heat, and Wednesday kids are back to school! I, on the other hand, am not--I am at a meeting today at Kent Intermediate School District about the state's new Core Curriculum Standards. I left a list of announcements for the sub to read to each hour (and also posted the changes on my classroom window), and because of the missed days, I adjusted due dates for all my classes as follows:

ELA 11
Poetry Portfolio and Poet Shadow will be due next Wednesday 12/22; students will share their project on Google docs. Memorized poem is still due Thursday this week.

AP Language
Because students might not have had their research at home, I will collect note cards on the Monday we return from Winter Break. Today kids will do a practice AP write as scheduled. We will nix the computer lab tomorrow and (try to) finish Book Talks.

Yearbook
Monday was the Word copy deadline for the second spreads. I will move this to Friday, 12/17, so that staffers can interview Wednesday and Thursday. Our Spread I deadline will then move to Wed. January 5, 2011.
