Week 1
Here is your link to connect to your ZOOM session: tinyurl.com/foyzoom
For the first week will focus on personal narratives, getting to know each other and diagnostics to see where your skills are. We will build up from there to strengthen your reading comprehension, writing of all kinds, and speaking as a team. Throughout the year, we will be using the Into Literature textbook (which you will get a personal copy of and access to online) and reading additional material. Please see below for the course syllabus.
Week 2: We will be logging in to HMH for our main curriculum. Go to Clever and click on HMH, and you will see a "strengths assessment" which I need every student to complete. We will be taking attendance at the beginning of the period and within the last five minutes of class. Later in the week, after all students have finish the assessment - think of it as a placement activity to find out your strength and skills we will build this semester, but each and every student needs to complete the "Strengths assessment" on Monday, and if I have you on Tuesday, you must complete the assessment during class. We will be using the HMH online text the entire year, so make sure it is working.
