Closing out your English 10 course!

Post date: Jun 03, 2020 11:33:43 PM

Hi Scholars!

You are one big step closer to graduating and realizing all of your dreams and changing our world!

After today, the only work that I am accepting is RECOVERY work.

This last week is for helping students who need to do work to pass (and for us to work through the Nile River - long directions for submitting final grades!

SO, if you are doing RECOVERY work, please continue to submit.

Otherwise, you are done!

What does that mean for you? and your speech? If you haven't finished revising your outline or typing/recording the final?

It means that unless you are doing work to recover a failing grade, you can stop right where you are!

Those of you who have made a good effort, I will record that -- but nothing else is due!!! The "argument / persuasion speech and essay" is a key assignment that we work toward -- and that we usually finish the year with, but I'm guessing all of us teachers are going to be doing some catching up next year! I do wish I could "hear" your speeches, though!

For those of you who have stayed with the course all this time, I am so proud of you and appreciate your hard work.

I may be communicating with some of you at some point before summer, but in case I do not, I want each of you to know that I care about you . . .

I've missed you . . .

and I want you to move forward and do great things.

I believe in your generation!

As Eleanor Roosevelt says, "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams."

And Wooden reminds us, "You can't live a perfect day without doing something for someone who will never be able to repay you." Be of kind heart -- the world need that.

I wish you only the best!

Please text or email if you have questions about anything.

and hang in there -- you can do anything. and we will get through all of this!
