1. Nametags
Grab a piece of paper and markers. We are going to create name tags so we can get to know each other.
2. English Journals
- We're going to set up our English Journals.
- You will use these journals each day in class for your Daily Journals.
- If you already had me last quarter, you will use the same journal and I will give you a sticky note to mark Q2.
- If you did not have me last quarter, I will give you a brand new journal and you will set it up as follows:
3. About You Forms
- Please fill out this About Me Form to help me get to know you before we start the year.
- I want to know what technology you're already familiar with, especially since we use technology a lot in this classroom.
- This also helps me with where you need to sit, especially if you have glasses or have a hard time seeing from far away.
4. Syllabus Review
- I have uploaded a copy of the syllabus HERE.
- You can preview it or make a copy and save it to your drive.
- It is also linked in the "Syllabus" tab of the blog above.
- I am going to ask you questions and you will write down the answers on your whiteboard tables (get used to doing this - it will happen often!)
- Wednesday: Pajama Day
- Thursday: Halloween Costumes
- Friday: School colors (maroon and silver)
