The second marking period is just about to end and my grades are up-to-date. That being said, some students have found themselves in a precarious situation. There are a handful of students who will not make the cut this marking period, but it is important to know that it is not over! There are two more quarters which will impact their grades (one way or another). Don't give up!
With all of these snow days, it has been hard for us all to find our groves. Plans keep changing and all due dates have been questionable. I have been very forgiving in that department - don't get used to that, because things will go back to normal.
General Classes - You should have begun to identify the countries of Southern Africa; the quiz date is tentatively scheduled for next Wednesday (January 29th). In class, we will continue to study Egypt. Our focus will be on the kingdoms for the next few days which they are appropriately named Old, Middle, and New (like the Stone Age).
Honors Classes - The Egyptian Cinderella notes were due today; obviously, it will now be due tomorrow (or on our next school day). No excuses! I have secured some library time on Thursday and Friday of this week, but I'm not sure how that will be impacted by the snow day. I will let you all know when we get back to school. Continue to think about your project topics. I reviewed your plans and I have offered some suggestions which you will see tomorrow. Most of them were great - there was one that was really lacking and one that was not turned in. In any case, you will all need to work hard to accomplish the goals you have set.
