What students should be working on ongoing at home:

Tuesday 20 January 2015

Tuesday

I was away all day in meetings.

Homework tonight:
- Work on your lines for Romeo and Juliet.
- Work on your science project
- There are two quizzes on Edmodo, one History and one English. We'll do them tomorrow, but feel free to do them tonight. Read the poem The Guest House, posted to the right, before starting the English quiz.




What is Edmodo?

I use Edmodo in the class.
Students write quizzes on Edmodo, and I keep track of some of their marks.
You can keep an eye on your child's progress and see their quizzes online.
Login is required for privacy reasons.
Your child knows their login.

WARNING: Edmodo weighs all assignments - major projects/minor quizzes the same, whereas for the report card, I weigh things much differently. The marks on Edmodo are often incomplete, as I use it on an ongoing basis, and am often updating and changing marks. Sometime I'll even post a mark as a zero as a reminder to me to talk to that student about something before calculating their actual mark. All I'm saying is - Don't take the final percentage on Edmodo as an indication of what will appear on the report card.
