Week of November 3

What is going on this week... conference on grade printouts reflecting pass "P" or "F" failing grade seen on 12 week progress/report card distributed this Friday during homeroom.

Questions to ask yourself if failing with an "F"...

• where am I?
• have I moved from one module to the next in time to complete course in the next 6 weeks?
• why not? Am I utilizing all resources provided to me...textbooks (physical and online listed on blog), academic coaches' visitations/tutorials, after school tutoring w/ content area teacher, etc.
• what can I do better that I am not doing? Utilize notebooks better for testing, use physical graphic organizers posted in class and online ones posted on blog...these will be suggested for use when using study guides & preps for the End of Course (EOC) assessment
• how can I do better that I am not already doing?
• when  can I do better outside of class?
• where can I work on my lessons to save a lot of time?
