Welcome to Mr. Luther's Eighth Grade Resource Page! This year can be a hectic time as you prepare for your high school years. I was there once (a long time ago... in a Hubbard far, far, away). I can totally empathize with the daily preparations, demands, and worries. It can get stressful, and it will challenge you. But you have something that I never had, and would have made my life SOOO much easier... THE INTERNET! I have created a place for you to go on your wonderful devices in order to retrieve certain class items in the event that you are absent, have misplaced notes or assigned materials, or just want to re-check what was discussed in class on a particular day. These pages will include selected notes, assignments, and even videos. Come to visit, and leave enlightened and educated! And as always if you have any questions, concerns, or comments, please hit this link: lutherb@hubbard.k12.oh.us. Thanks for stopping by!
Again, as was mentioned in the Class Rules and Expectations section, class materials are very important and are to be with students in class, every day. Leaving these items in their lockers, or worse yet misplaced or at home, results in missed opportunities for success. It is the students' responsibilities to make certain that they have these items for use in class each day. These items include:
~ Class textbook - The Eighth Grade Textbook is McDougal Littel's "The Language of Literature", Green edition. These should be in class unless otherwise instructed or directed.
~ Class 3 ring binder - The binder should contain plenty of notebook paper and seven (7) divider tabs.
~ Pens - Blue and Black (for final draft writing and class activity).
~ Pencils - Regular (for rough draft writing and class activity) and Colored (for notation connections and in class corrections).
~ Assigned Work and Reading materials - These can include handouts, magazine or periodical articles, and worksheet items.
~ Novels - From time to time, we will be reading novels in class. In these instances, students will NOT be expected to bring their textbooks to class.
