LANGUAGE ARTS: Several students have requested electronic copies of their essays so that they can finish them up at home. They will hear from me later about due dates, once I have given them the electronic copies they requested. (This will take a few days, because I have to access their drafts individually and copy or email them after after school.)
You'll see a note on the current grade update that indicates whether you've turned it in (cr) or whether you've asked for an extension to work on it later (ext). (I intend to give up to a week to each student once he/she has received the electronic copy.)
*************************
This is the current notes folder list as of Friday, 11/7:
