Algunos detalles IMPORTANTES para esta semana

ESTIMADOS alumnos míos,

Espero que hayan pasado muy bien el fin de semana, y que hayan esquiado mucho.

Algunas cosas importantes para esta semana:

  • Chuck and Ty: one of you didn't put your name on your travel syllabus and the other didn't turn it in. I will bring it in tomorrow to resolve this - until and unless we figure out whose it is you both have zeros on your travel work. 
  • Jace and Ty - neither of you has done the recording on Miguel's job search. If you look at the posts on this site you will see a model answer from Chris Fitz that I posted for Joe's benefit. You both need to be studying this TONIGHT and take it by NO LATER than Tuesday. These grades are vital to your well being. 
  • To the folks who were unable to finish the Chapter 5 Quest, YOU MUST appear at office hours this week ready to rewrite your composition. This is the only section of the exam you will be allowed to repeat. Until you do that, your grade stands. The quests are graded and are in the grade book, along with a number of grades I had fallen behind on due to prolonged illness but spent the better part of today catching up on. No quest corrections accepted - we will be going over the quest Monday in class. To see how well you listened up during the review, I will give you one of the sections as a quiz at the end of class. This is an opportunity not to be missed.
  • Winter term students who are staying on but have not yet forwarded to my email (npjobe@gmail.com) a receipt for purchase of our textbook currently have a 0/10 in my gradebook. The later I get this receipt, the less opportunity you have to raise this score. I suggest a very rapid resolution. I will do a textbook check in class Monday. 
  • Due to missed time from the snow storm, the character of the Chapter 5 oral test has changed - I don't want to spend two whole class periods preparing and presenting when we're already well behind where I'd like to be. Due to the very strong scores on the last chapter video (when you took notes and then called in to Google Voice a summary), I will try to help you by repeating that style of oral assessment. Take good notes in class Monday or Tuesday (depending on when we get to the video) and you will likely do well.

  1. Peyton... Why couldnt this have been posted a few days ago? A few of us dorm members tried to contact you over these past few days in an attempt to understand what Monday would entail...
    I feel pressured and unprepared,
    Best,
    Jace
