Reminders
  • It is important for you to stay caught up with regard to all of your coursework.  It is in your best interest to check the blog and Schooltool often.  Additionally, if you have an "INC" for a Marking Period, following up with me ASAP would be wise!
  • Free reading evidence (a one-pager, a "Book Review" template, a book-talk, etc.) is OPTIONAL for the last two marking periods.  If you finished a book and decide to present evidence for an excellence score to be reported as part of your Marking Period 6 GPA,  you must do so by 3:00 PM this Friday, 6/14.  Please make arrangements accordingly.
  • I need you to turn in school materials (e.g., Lord of the Flies) during our last few class blocks.  Also, if you have any other books in your possession that belong to me, I need those back as well!
  • The NYS Regents Examination in English Language Arts will take place on Wednesday, 6/19 during the 7:40 AM to 10:40 AM time slot.  Continue preparing for a successful performance--I believe in all of you!
