A Note From the English Classroom

Greetings from the English Classroom!

Now that school is in full swing, I thought I would

send a quick note home to say hello and check in.

Just a reminder that I avidly blog the week’s homework at:

mpotas.blogspot.com

This is a very helpful tool for students and parents to

keep track of assignments. This blog also correlates nicely with our on-line grade book Infinite Campus. I also compute all grades for the week every Thursday. By 4:00pm Thursday, a parent can log on to Infinite Campus and receive the most up-to-date grade for their child.  If you need a username and password for Infinite Campus, please contact the school or stop by.

Also, students are highly encouraged to review their homework with their parents and will receive extra credit for doing so. Just sign your kiddos homework and they will receive some bonus points! Please remember we have a consistent homework schedule every week:

Monday: Spelling Packet sent home/ and grammar set

Tuesday: Grammar Set

Wednesday: Grammar Set

Thursday: Spelling Packets Due and Quiz

(Current Events are due every other Wednesday for grades 8-11, and a creative writing journal for grade 7 due every Wednesday)

Please keep in contact if you have any questions. As always, I find your children delightful J
