Students and Parents: There is HW all this week: No late work accepted!

Students and Parents,

During class I took the time to explain why late homework will NOT be accepted this week and next week.  FCAT Reading is 1 month away, and we still have more texts analysis to cover. Many of the HW assignments are designed to give students an opportunity to fully comprehend and analyze text at their own pace.  As a follow-up we will discus the reading in-class - deepen comprehension with rigorous activities and questions.

If the student does not complete the home work reading and in-margin questions prior to class discussion, he/she (1) will not have the knowledge of the text; (2) will not be able to deepen his/her understanding through the rich-discussions and activities; (3) will not be ready for the quizzes that will follow each class discussion and activity.

To ensure, students are equipped to complete each task, I have asked them to take their literature textbook home, but if they forget, I have given them the activation code to access the online book. ONLINE BOOK ACTIVATION CODE: 3767769-50.
