Write to Learn
We are very excited to have a new writing program for our middle school students. Students can attain the website at school or home to work on their assigned papers. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. The link is http://pearsonkt.com/WriteToLearn/co/aa
Research papers
I have begun grading the English Research Papers. However, due to the detail that is involved, each paper is taking an average of 45 minutes each to evaluate. Please understand that I am working as quickly as possible but there is going to be a longer than average delay in entering grades into Infinite Campus. I will update the grade when I finish with each student. Thank you in advanced for your understanding.
