Standard 09-25-2012

Well we definitely had a few superstars on the acuity tests today.  I'm talking about you, Audrey Richmond, with Katherine Barker, Killian Braunsdorf, Rachel Lee, Meagan Kelly, and Andrew Migas not far behind.  Stand up and take a bow!  We also came to realize that we have some work to do.  But that is what the predictive test is supposed to show.  Don't get discouraged if your score was not where you want it to be.  Instead, work hard over the next few weeks to do what you need to to bring it up.  That means you should be working on the Acuity At Home material as often as possible.  You also need to be taking notes in class, asking questions when you don't understand something, participating so that you can get the most out of the class, and striving to do your best.  Goof around outside of class.  Focus and work inside of class.

You'll be getting your books tomorrow; yes, it is a couple days later than initially planned.  The expectations are going to be sky high on these reads and on the material you need to prepare to be successful.  Don't let me down.  Don't let your group down.  Don't let yourself down.

Something uniques and different is headed your way tomorrow.  Are you ready for a pictorial essay tied to poems?  Be ready to blow your mind!

How about a notebook quiz tomorrow?  I'll say you have to come to class and write me an explanation on the difference between a dependent clause and an independent clause.  then I'll ask you to write a sentence that contains both and label the two parts.  Whew!  Glad you read the blog, aren't you?
