This is a pretty light week on homework! We're finishing up benchmark testing Monday and Tuesday in all classes. The reading and writing tests will be scored together and given a single test grade.
Pre-AP English needs to continue focusing on their word count. 300 words a day puts us at 5400 words by Friday. Very few students are currently on track. Please encourage them to spend time every day writing. Catching huge chunks up is much more difficult.
Regular ELAR is starting the process of revising rough drafts into final drafts this week, which will all be done in class. We will also start planning our presentations, which will be made following Thanksgiving break.
