Language Arts - Reg Class
Past Assignments:


ancestry search Due: Monday, May 06, 2013

students were asked to bring in at least one person in their family who was born before 1935.     We then look names up, searching for that family member on the 1940 US Census.   If they were not born in US/not yet immigrated to US, students will look up my grandfather.   Please note that this is a questioning exercise, in that the students were supposed to speak to family members/friends of family to get this information, then wrote it down so  we can search.    I do not question the students on the person - whoever they considered family is their family.

Accelerated Reading Point Goals Due: Tuesday, January 15, 2013

Students have taken a test called Scholastic Reading Inventory, which gives the level they are reading at, according to the computer score.   I then determine a point goal for each individual student.  The goals will be different for each student.

Students are required to meet their point goal by the end of the quarter, which is Jan. 15th.   

Meeting their point goal counts as a TEST grade.
