  Important Things to Know    
 

      I give a weekly progress report on Wednesdays.  This year, they will be stapled to the inside of your child’s planner.  They should be signed by you and returned to me on Thursday.   If your child misses two weeks in a row of progress reports, he/she will get a check.  If an assignment is missing, it averages as a zero and should be made up as soon as possible.

My grading scale is 34% for tests and projects and 66% for daily grades.  I do not give extra credit or drop the lowest grade.
>
My e-mail address is LeeFesmireHudson@yahoo.com  I don’t make a lot of phone calls after school about behavior or homework. Instead, I’ll communicate with you through your child’s planner.  Please check it every day. There are three things your child needs to do to make an A in my class: do all their work, listen, and study.
>In English class, we learn about the grammar, usage, and mechanics of our language.  In writing class, we put that knowledge to use.  Sixth graders write memoirs and poetry.  Seventh graders write fiction.  Eighth graders write opinions, tributes, and reviews.
>
I will have workbooks available for you to use at home if you would like one to supplement our English book.
