    STUDENTS:As we start this school year online and virtual,
    it is important that we communicate.  Everything will be done
    in CANVAS and by email.  Please contact me if you are having 
    issues with assignments by email or on the phone number below.
    We can do this if we work together.  Stay positive, stay safe, and stay
    blessed.

    What we do in English 1 and 2!
    We read, we write, we think.  Each student has a voice and I do my best to make sure
    that each one is heard.  I encourage lots of participation.  
    Our day starts with Grammar--everyday.  We then do some type of writing/reading activity
    to engage student thinking.  Classroom talk is very important.  No--not the students talking about
    anything they want; students should be talking about the topic at hand.  
     
    HOMEWORK
    The majority of the homework in this class is READING!  We do not have enough time in class to
    read all of our curriculum.  Some outside reading is required.  Students should be reading at least 20 minutes
    3-4 times a week.  I give a quiz on almost every reading assignment.  I find that the students who struggle in my class
    simply do not spend 20 minutes reading each night.
