HW from Thursday, 2/22/18

Due on AND BEFORE Tuesday, 2/27/18

1) Be sure you have completed your three Haiku poems. (If you’ve been absent you may have missed writer’s notebook entries #5 and #6, which was to write these three Haiku poems.) Check them for correct syllabication and to make sure they’re good. (Don’t send me anything like some of those terrible ones we were working with yesterday in class!) Type the three Haiku poems, double-spaced, into one document (for most of you this will mean adding the second two to the first one you already emailed me) and email it to my Markup address before the weekend if possible.

2) Continue writing your mystery story. If some unusual situation has delayed your progress on your story (sickness, other excused absences, or getting started slowly because I made you get approval from me before you could continue), you must contact me to request an extension to the following schedule. Otherwise, the schedule for the completion of your story is as follows:

* If you have not, complete a full draft (D4) of your story as soon as possible. Then proofread it carefully on the computer, making any corrections or changes you notice are needed. Print a good copy to give your parent(s). Have them proofread it and sign it to indicate that they did so. Make their suggested corrections over the weekend.

* On Tuesday, 2/27, turn in your D4 packet in the envelope with all parts of your mystery story, as follows: the list of possible things in David's pocket, your plot line diagram with your story line items on it, your original D1 and D2 (with the graded ones and your printed Markup copy), your D3 packet (your graded "blue copy" with the completed grading rubric on top), and your D4 beautiful copy stapled on top of your parents' signed proofread copy. 

3) Make sure you have made all four Scripture memory cards for all of the verses on the handout. All four Scripture memory verses must be ready to be recited in class on Thursday, 2/22at any time. (You will be having a quiz on all four memory verses at any time as well.)

-----

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 four memorized Scripture memory verses (Titus 2:11-14, Ephesians 4:29-32, Philippians 4:4-8, 1 Chronicles 29:11-13) daily.
