Mrs. Schneider's Super Stars

A couple of things that you need to be aware of for second term:

1-Any work that is over a week late, will be a zero.  Every Monday, I will print out a missing work paper to be sent home.  If the assignments are not turned in by Friday 3:00–they turn to zeros and can not be made up.

2-I am going to become very picky on the Reader Response Journals.  They have gotten pretty sloppy lately.  The letters aren’t being signed, the format isn’t there, and most importantly there is not much deeper level thinking going on while writing them.  Being an accelerated class, I expect the kids to be thinking at their levels, and I’m not seeing that reflected in many of the letters.  Starting in term 2 (Monday), if any of the scores are lower than an 8-the students will need to redo their letters to receive a grade, and then that letter will be counted as late.  It’s not doing any good to have the students not thinking and doing their best work.  It’s also very frustrating to see the students not working to their full potential.  My job is to push these students and challenge them.  🙂

Thanks for your understanding and support.
