The Trimester Ends in Three Weeks... Are we where we need to be?

While an introduction to what we are doing for the week of 2.11 is important, I believe that the following announcement is critical:
If students did not submit an enrichment sheet on Mansfield/ Foster, they need to speak with me immediately so some arrangement can be reached.  It was a big task.  Its absence hurts much in way of academic progress.  

With that out of the way, our work in Erich Maria Remarque's work continues this week.
Monday, 2.11- Continue in class reading of All Quiet on the Western Front.  Students should be working on annotating the work as well as completing their Themes Log.
HW:  Themes Log and continue reading All Quiet on the Western Front.

Tuesday, 2.12-  Continue in class reading of All Quiet on the Western Front.  Students should be working on annotating the work as well as completing their Themes Log.
HW:  Themes Log and continue reading All Quiet on the Western Front.

If we are still reading after this point, the homework will continue.  If we are done by Tuesday (which is what I anticipate with the pacing we are exhibiting...)
Wednesday, 2.13- Student choice- Finish reading parts not completed or work on Common Core Homework.
HW:  Finish Common Core Homework Assignment on Remarque's work.

Thursday, 2.14- Valentine's Day brings out the "heart" in everyone.  Discuss World War I Assessment and issue options.  Students will have to start making declarations.
HW:  Common Core Assessment tomorrow.

Friday, 2.15- Finish Common Core Assessments and then submit them with Themes Logs.  Declare your World War I Assessments. If you want to pick up your World War I Assessments after school today, you may.  If not you must pick them up Monday at the start of lunch.  That is the only time they will be available.

We are working so intensely on doing what is in the best interests of scholarship.  If I can be of any further assistance in this quest, please do not hesitate to contact me.
All best.
Mr. Kannan
