Valentine's Day was fun and went well.

Language Arts: "How To Handle A Bully" Essay Due: 2/28. We are finished working on the essay in class. Students will need to continue working on them at home to keep improving their scores. On February 28, I will record the scores.

Oral Poem Performance of "Don't Quit" Due: 2/15. Students will be graded, so remember to practice it "Loud, Slow, and Clear." Especially SLOW!!!

"Causes of Good Grades" Due: 2/28. We will be working on this essay in class next week. After that, it will be the students' responsibility to keep working on their essay at home to bring up the scores.

Remember: If students are absent from my class, they need to makeup the missed class time working on their essays at home on myaccess.com, which is 40-45 minutes. Several students have been assuming that because I don't hand them a worksheet,
they don't have any makeup work. Their makeup work is on-line.

Reading: Read a myth about Cupid today, "Love and the Soul" with worksheet, done in class. Quiz on Stargazing tomorrow. Spelling/Vocabulary test on Thursday, February 17.
