Week of September 16 - 20th Events

1.  So this week many of you took the placement test for Reading Plus and if not will be doing it on your at home.  Remember that starting September 23rd I will start counting your two sessions per week for a grade.  Your sessions need to be completed by each Sunday in order to count for the week.

2.  Many of you have also started showing me your proof of registering for the SAT/ACT exams (admission ticket) in order to get extra credit points for my class.  Friday, September 20th was the deadline for the Oct. 5th SAT and Friday, September 27th is the deadline for the Oct. ACT.

3. We also reviewed grammar rules for Verb tense and Subject - Verb agreement.  If you missed any of the notes please refer to this website:   http://www.chompchomp.com/presentations.htm

4.  We have also been using the practice SAT workbook in class and will continue to use the practice workbook for the next two weeks.  Practice is key when it comes to the SAT.

5.  Don't forget to work on your Big Future website project.  Remember you need to have at least 4 colleges that you would plan on applying to this Fall.  The website is https://bigfuture.collegeboard.org/
You should click on "Find Colleges" to begin the process.

6. You received progress reports Friday, September 20th so you should see where you stand in my class right now.  If you are not happy with your grade there is time to improve your grade.
