As we will not participate in the virtual classroom until Friday, I will give you a brief overview of what I plan to do  with the classwork this quarter. 

 

Starting Wednesday, I will start posting vocabulary words to insert  into a blank vocabulary definition document that will become available Wednesday. The vocabulary words will be posted in the Daily Agenda on Curve along with the instructions for the course of study for the day. The documents and PowerPoints will be posted in Curve for the day also. The PowerPoint will be posted to complete the page of the study guide that will serve as the book for this section as well as the "textbook" for this class.

 

#4 in the Class Rules document describes the Portfolio that must be kept either as a Notebook or a computer document. This Portfolio will be graded one time each quarter and count as a quiz grade. 

 

There will be three test grades a quarter and normally four quiz grades which come from the vocabulary quizzes and the Portfolio. Again, the Portfolio is the "textbook" for this class and must be maintained in good working order. 

 

This is how we will start the year, and quizzes and tests will probably come through the Performance Matters section of PowerSchool. I encourage all of you to be patient and flexible as we forge a new path for virtual education at Bartlett High School.
