Mrs. Stubbs's English Blog: Let's Try This Again

Good morning! Well last week sure didn't work out, did it? The good part of it all is that my papers are graded, I've planned everything for the next few days, and my house is fairly well organized. In my English 9 classes, we'll just pick up right where we were and try to crank through this play. In English 10, we're now even further behind. I put a couple of things on Google Classroom, but other than having them Skype with me to do actual class, I had to pause because I need to see that they're getting things before I move forward, and Skyping 90 of them at a time just is not going to happen! I've modified how we're moving forward, and this week I'll give out information for the research project. I'll share the flyer with you later this week, both digital and hard copy.

Here's the plan for this week:

English 9

Monday, 2/18 - no school
Tuesday, 2/19 - Academic Advisory - Type 1 commas; Act II - assign roles, vocab/study guide packet; poppet packet; read Act II
Wednesday, 2/20 - Type 1 commas; Type 1's for pp. 58-67; read Act II
Thursday, 2/21 - PSAT Advisory - Type 1 commas - turn in Type 1's for week; read Act II
Friday, 2/22 - finish Act II; quiz; add literary elements to original packet

English 10

That's what I've got. I'm really hoping the snow days are done, but it will be what it'll be, right? Ciao!
