Progress Reports

Progress Reports Go Out Wednesday 9/19! 

Please look for them on this day.  My classes need to get them signed by a guardian and returned to me by the end of school Friday 9/21. 

If you have any "M"s on I-Parent, please get those assignments in to me for a late grade.  Any score is better than a 0 when your grade is being averaged. 

Test Corrections

POINTS BACK FOR CORRECTIONS!

I handed back tests today.  The scores were not what I had hoped.  I have asked all my students to correct their tests for HALF OF THEIR POINTS BACK!  For some students, these corrections will give them a one to two letter grade jump.  Please look for the tests and have your students do these corrections. 

Format: On a seperate piece of paper, staple to your test, please follow these guidelines. 

Question #                                                                   

Correct Answer                                                      

Pg. Number or Note Page where you found the correct answer            

Using a complete sentence, tell me why your answer was wrong.

EX:  6. B- latitude, landforms, wind/water

           Pg. 275 

           I thought that only oceans effected the climate of Europe, not the seas.
