FYI - If you missed the individual pictures on 9/29, the makeup day will be 10/28.
Middle school is excited for our upcoming trip to Catholic High to watch a performance of "Scrooged" on November 19th.
We completed our first novel, Seedfolks, and are beginning our next novel, Taking Sides, this week. In this next novel, we will meet a boy who experiences a variety of conflicts as he moves from one side of town to a very different side. The students are sure to relate to many of this character's struggles and experiences. I hope to complete this book before Thanksgiving, so we can start something new when we return from that holiday break.
Vocabulary - We are in Unit 4 and the test will be on November 6th.
All middle school teachers have a standardized late work policy designed to promote responsibility
and time management skills that are essential for academic success.
Students who fail to submit homework or practice assignments will receive a zero with no opportunity for makeup credit. This policy encourages consistent daily engagement with course material.
Late submissions will be accepted within one calendar week of the original due date for a maximum of 50% credit. Work submitted after this date will receive a grade of zero. Students must notify teachers via email when submitting late work—Google Classroom messages do not fulfill this requirement.
Missed quizzes and tests due to absence must be completed upon return or within one week for extended absences. It is each student’s responsibility to schedule makeup assessments.
