HW from Thursday, 2/15/18

Due on AND BEFORE Tuesday, 2/20/18

1) Finish the Haiku poem you began in your writer’s notebook in class today. Be sure you love it, it is about nature, and that the syllabication is 5 – 7 – 5 over the three lines. Type it up, skipping lines, and email it as an attachment to my Markup address before the weekend. Label everything properly.

2) Make a new Scripture memory card for the other verse on the handout. Both new Scripture memory verses (Philippians 4:4-8 AND 1 Chronicles 29:11-14) must be ready to be recited in class next Thursday, 2/22. (If you haven’t yet mastered the first two verses, you must do so now. You will be having a quiz on all four memory verses on Tuesday, 2/27.)

3) Continue writing your mystery story. You should write at least 1-2 pages every day until your story is completed. The goal at this point is to work toward finishing your story as soon as you can, but please write well—we want a good story, after all, and that takes care!

NOTE: The schedule for the completion of your story is as follows:

* By next Thursday, 2/22, you must have completed a full draft (D4) of your story. It must be finished and proofread by you at that point, and a good copy printed out to show me in class. (This will be the copy you will give your parent(s) to proofread so that you can make their suggested corrections over the weekend.)

* On Tuesday, 2/27, you will turn in your D4 packet in the envelope with all other parts of your mystery story, including your D3 packet with your blue copy on top and the grading rubric for your D3.

Also, daily:

+ Read your (approved) book for pleasure, aiming for 30 minutes daily. Mark the number of minutes on your Reading Log as you go along—in multiples of five, rounded down—and have a parent initial it in the box each day. The February Reading Log will be due on Thursday, 3/1/18.

+ Review your two memorized Scripture memory verses (Titus 2:11-14 AND Ephesians 4:29-32) daily.

+ Practice and work on memorizing the other two new Scripture memory verse (Philippians 4:4-8 AND 1 Chronicles 29:11-13) daily.
