Homework catch-up

Here is the list of currently overdue items that I gave the students today. They were expected to make sure that they have everything complete:

  • Pratique pratique 3-7 décembre
  • Lecture hébdo 3-7 décembre
  • Compréhension “La neige”
  • Petit truc “72”
  • Carnet de lecture
  • Principes d’art
  • Sciences humaines en anglais
  • Résolution de problème - la maman de Marie
  • Questions 1-10 des jumelles Barnes

These are not unreasonable assignments when they are assigned, and students are given ample time in class to complete these assignments prior to the due date, plus work periods after the due date to catch up, plus time before school 3 days a week, plus any time they have at home. 

High school is only 20 months away; it is time for them to start taking responsibility for their education.

    Thanks for this. Even better would be write it as a direct address to the students rather than the parents so that we parents can have children read the list and see that is their responsibility. I for one often do not even see any "homework" so have no idea what is incomplete.

Tuesday we will have our French quiz. This is the practice from today. The verb portion is CLOSED BOOK, but there is a word bank on the sheet. The theory portion of the quiz is OPEN BOOK, so students should check that they have all of the notes they will need. Here are the notes about the passé composé.
