Moving Forward. Students need to listen, they can take notes, but don’t have to. All students will be asked questions immediately following;
·
Student Affect: Your letting your lack of
confidence, past experiences determine your success
·
You are still resisting rigor-I've shown you the statistics, I’ve
shown you what professors say, I’ve shown you what college students say, yet
you still resist anything challenging and want things to be super easy-step it
up please
·
Versatile-must juggle- Purpose of portfolio to
keep you organized- a lot of you that is your problem. You can’t answer Exit 5,
because you lost your R4 Cnotes, you can’t do exit 6, because you lost your
expectation cnotes, you can’t do the compare contrast essay, because you lost
your W1 Cnotes. Learn how to juggle between assignments during one class period, by organizing them in portfolio.
·
Everything builds in here-Essay for example- We read stories first (some of you didn’t do that), we thoroughly went over
Compare/Contrast, comparing two reality shows, I walked you through the essay
process in detail, 1 day spent just on thesis, another day on intro, another day on support, another day on conclusion. I gave
you a model essay to use, rubric, outline.There was no valid reason for not submitting the essay, yet a lot of you didn't.
·
You're Habitually absent
·
Habitually tardy
·
Not listening-For example, during lecture when I give answers to exit slips
·
Not taking Cnotes-again, answers to exit slips are revealed during Cnote process
·
You receive multiple strategies, resources for
assignments, projects and don’t take advantage. Waste time given.
Presentations, for example, time in class to prepare, were assigned early
December, projects moved to January, a week after we got back from break.
Walked you through Cnotes for 4 classes, had you do questions immediately
afterward, Gave you a persuasive packet, making sure to tell you to use it,
read it, and it was 25% of your grade. A lot of you, didn’t do presentations,
a lot of you never even looked at the packet, most of you didn’t turn in the
cnotes.
·
You're not using Battensclasess.blogspot.com You ask questions like: What is exit 5, I wasn’t here for the
expectation cnotes, what did I miss. Its all on the site.
·
Tutoring Tues/Thurs, during lunch, only a few of
you take advantage of this. Some of you come once, and never come back
·
You don’t know rules and procedures and you come
in every day like its your first. You waste class time because you don’t know
things that you should have known since the first week, like how to leave
class, what happens if your absent for a presentation/project, How to
participate in class, 80% of grade assessments-wasting time on 20% assignments
·
Extra Credit-Owen Meany book is 25 points, you were allowed to recycle exit
slips, redo assignments. From now on exit slips-only 1 question can be fixed
·
Explain 80% grade-Only 6 assignments were your assessment grade. If you didn't turn in one or more of those assessments, you negatively affected your grade. Some of you didn't turn in any assessments, so the highest grade you could have received was a 20% for participation assignments.

·
Problems reviewed- students not reading, don’t know character
names, in main idea say something that only happened briefly in 10 pages, but
isn’t really the main idea, start with: In these 10 pages I read
·
Ra Ta Ta reviewed, start with summary, set reader up for what you'll read,
wait for them to find-but not forever, explain your thinking-don’t just read
