February+10,+2016

Hello, everyone! I am at a meeting today about some fun changes for next year! Please follow the steps below to complete today's work.

You will need the following materials today:
 * Your assignment book
 * A pencil
 * A chrome book
 * Your quia login and password
 * Your DGP sentence
 * headphones (you won't need these until after the quiz)

Step 1: Copy the homework from the SMART board into your assignment book!

Step 2: Please click here to go to quia and take your Giver quiz on chapters 1-8. The quiz is called The Giver Chapters 1-8 Quiz (Steigerwalt). If you get a 90% or higher, you may get a sticker.

Step 3: When you are done with the quiz, please click here to watch a video that reviews Tuesday DGP (if you are period 6, 7, or were absent yesterday), then click here to review Wednesday DGP (for everyone).

Step 4: If you are in GHP, skip to Step 5. If you are in regular, go to your google drive and type the final copy of your argumentative paragraph. Remember, you're going to:
 * go to google
 * log in using your school google login (first letter of your first name, first five letters of your last name, last three digits of your ID number, and then @student.parklandsd.net) and password
 * Go to the waffle menu and select your drive
 * Click on "shared with me"
 * Find the Argumentative Paragraph document - there is a red and black graphic in the corner.
 * Type your paragraph in according to the directions in the document.
 * If you need a visual refresher on how to log in to your google drive, you can check out this video for a reminder.

Step 5: If you are in periods 2, 3, or 4, move on to Step 6. If you are in periods 6 or 7, please complete pages 1-3 in your Giver packet if you have not yet done so.

Step 6: If you finish all of the above items, you may work on any of the following: Study Island, Giver chapter 9 (read and do questions), DGP, Getting to the Root of It. You may NOT simply browse the internet, and you may NOT play games. GHP students, you may also work on your Bio Connection Essay.

Please note: Since we have short classes today, I will be doing IXL bragging rights awards on Tuesday, which is the next time I will see you! However, I did grade them this morning during 1st period.
