Syllabus

OVERVIEW & PURPOSE

This class will help those who strive for greatness! We will be learning skills that will be useful for life after high school, as well as engaging in meaningful conversation about the content covered in class. 

MATERIALS NEEDED

1. Notebook
2. Pen/pencils
3. A positive attitude

Activities used for checking for understanding

1. Exit tickets
1. These are used as summaries to give me an understanding of how students felt about the lesson, and if they fully comprehended the in class assignment.
2. Vocabulary checks
1. Each day, vocabulary is projected on the smartboard for students to copy into their notebooks during the first 5 minutes of the period. This vocabulary will be checked at various points and counted as a quiz grade.
3. Annotation checks
1. While reading a text, students will be provided with guided reading questions to answer as we read. These questions will be answered on post-it notes, and put into each novel. At the conclusion of each chapter, students will be asked to answer the guided reading questions using the post-it notes as a resource to answer the questions, and will be counted as a quiz grade. 
4. Small group
1. Students will work in small groups every other day in class with me to work on areas where they need more support.

Thank you! 

I look forward to working with your students!
