English Class on Monday, October 12th

Today, you will be taking your Accelerated Reader Quiz in class by clicking the link below.

Accelerated Reader Quiz

Mrs. Porter has posted the list of usernames and passwords for the Accelerated Reader website on the front table.

If you received a 90% or higher on your AR quiz, you can see Mrs. Porter for a sticker for your bingo card.

When you have finished the quiz, you are to complete your citation in NoodleTools by clicking the link below. 

NoodleTools

You are to follow the AR NoodleTools citation instructions. If you lost your copy, you can get a copy from the extra copies' bin in Mrs. Porter's room.  So, if you did not complete the citation rough draft for homework, you are just to write your citation in NoodleTools.  I don't need the rough draft copy of your citation.

Remember: You need to share your citation with Mrs. Porter to receive credit. If you do not share your citation with the drop box for your class period, a point will be deducted from your AR quiz grade.

Drop box name: Period #: October AR Book
# = your class period (1, 4/5, 6/7, 8/9, or 10)

If you turned in your novel early, and did not record your ISBN number, you are to follow these instructions: You can look up your ISBN on Destiny. There's a link to Destiny on the Looking for a Book? page on the LMC website. Once you find your book in Destiny, you can click on the title link and you will see the title details for your book. One of the things listed is the ISBN #. You can even just copy and paste the ISBN number right into NoodleTools. 

Once you have finished both tasks, you are to turn in your library book to Mrs. Porter.

You can complete are to complete the online textbook activity by following the directions on the slip that you received when you came in today.  You will need headphones for this activity.  They are located in the bin at the front of the room by Mrs. Porter's desk.

If you get done with the online textbook activity, you are to go to No Red Ink and complete an activity on Pronoun-Antecedent Agreement. If you don't get this activity done, it is not homework even though No Red Ink labels this activity as an "assignment".
