Welcome back!

Today we had a different kind of class because I introduced NoRedInk.com. This is an interactive, personalized grammar/punctuation website that helps students learn skills that I don't necessarily have time to teach but feel are critical. Students got set up and logged on today. If you were absent, we will get you caught up.

If you look under "links," you will see reminders of what to use to log onto NoRedInk.. You may work on the assignments at home. I tailored assignments to weak areas that I saw through student writing.

Two grades were entered on HAC this weekend. If you see a blank instead of a grade, it means I didn't get that work from you. If your homework partner was absent, that means they didn't pass in your grade. This means you need to follow up with them!

H/W: Make sure you have a strong claim and 3 pieces of powerful evidence. from your novel (some students will be using "Raymond's Run"). Evidence is EXACT quote and page number.

See you tomorrow!
