Welcome, New Students!

Posted in Announcements on 28.12.09

I hope all of you are enjoying your holidays and looking forward to beginning your FINAL semester of high school!

On the first day of class, I will give you all of the handouts and information you will need for the semester. In the meantime, if you want to get acclimated to the course, here are a few things you might like to know.

I maintain a Facebook group for AP students and periodically send out information. If you would like to join this group, please click on the Facebook link on the right hand column, toward the bottom of the page.

I hope you have already completed your summer reading and the related assignment. If not, click on “Summer Reading” under pages on the right-hand column. The summer reading assignment for the second book will be due on the FRIDAY of the first week of the semester. The test over Black Boy or Angela’s Ashes will be on the MONDAY of the second week of the semester.

In the next couple of days, I will update the syllabus and post due dates on the pages for all major assignments. Check the website in a couple of days for these updates, or sign-up above to be notified through email when I update the website.

If you need to contact me, you can email me at school (Edie.Parrott@cobbk12.org) or send me a Facebook message. I will always respond within 24 hours. If you do not receive a response, try again because my spam filter may have captured your email.

I am looking forward to teaching you!

Memories

Football_game_032b_3 How Will We Remember Each Other?

At the end of the semester, I will give each of you a sheet of comments that your classmates wrote about you. In order to compile this list, I need comments from you about your classmates.

Directions:  Write one kind remark about each person in this class.  What will you remember most about each person?  What is the best thing you can say? 

Please type your comments and e-mail the file to me.  (See the WORD files below.)  Please e-mail your comments to me by Friday, May 9th.

I will compile all of the comments.  During the final few days of the semester, I will give each student a sheet with all of the comments that each student has submitted about him.  I will also include your name on the comment.   I don’t think we will have this problem, but if you type rude and/or silly comments (including “inside” jokes), I will just throw your paper away. 

Underneath each student’s name, type YOUR NAME and then type your comment below your name (I will cut and paste your name and remarks and affix them to each student’s page.)  Take some time and THINK.
