What Our Class Will Cover This Year: ❏ Our focus will be to read a variety of different genres all in order to expose our students to the intriguing world of literature and to a variety of writing modes such as literary analysis, informational, and argumentative writing. ❏ TEKS ❏ English 3 Course Map
Major Projects & Grades: ❏ Parents can access Skyward to see grades and set up parameters to automatically receive grades weekly, get notifications for missing assignments, etc. I update Skyward regularly. If you see a zero in the gradebook, it means that I do not have the assignment. So please check with your student. ❏ Just because student has marked done in Google classroom does not mean that student has submitted an assignment. Please review document to insure your student is submitting a completed assignment and not just a blank document. ❏ Students will need their chromebooks daily and any book that we may be reading in class.
Tools We Use with Students: ❏ Google Classroom ❏ Turnitin. com ❏ LIVE Calendar
Grading Policies: ❏ Daily grades are worth 40%. ❏ Test grades/performance tasks are worth 60% ❏ Test grades below a 70% will have the opportunity to redo or correct for up to a 70%. ❏ Per the grading policy, late work will be accepted. One class period late will receive a maximum of a 70%.
