Hi All!
Just a reminder that Persepolis should be finished this weekend along with your journal prompts. Journal prompts (15 of the 19) are due Monday. They should be turned in with your spirals. I will be looking over your notes and journal writes from the last unit too (Alchemist). I will be providing feedback for both.
Finishing 19 of 19 will be considered *Challenge Criteria for A-seeking students or extra credit for those who need it.
Please remember that I prefer quality over quantity. I would rather your do a stellar job on a the 15 than a shoddy job on all of them.
We will continue working on the research process next week. Papers are due on Tuesday the 28th for 3rd period and Wednesday the 29th for 5th, 6th and 8th.
As always, thank you for being brilliant, thoughtful, inquisitive and kind.
Remember to scroll down for information you may have missed and Challenge Criteria!
if we don't do the extension criteria will it lower our grade?
ReplyDeleteThis is an area where you need to make a judgement call. If you have consistently gone over and beyond on your assignments (like how you read two magical realism books rather than just one), or shown more than once that you push yourself as a learner to do more than what is required then, no, you do not need to do the extension criteria. If you are pulling off As by just being thorough and consistent but you haven't REALLY pushed yourself, then yes, you do. Ask me Monday if you need further clarification.
