I am so excited for Spring and our new semester!
Tidbits:
Tech: Students and parents can keep up with classroom ideas/work/assignments/projects/information with the classroom blog (cathleenpetty.blogspot.com). I am hoping to use my school Instagram (catpettyrhs) to post homework, etc. I also have the google voice phone number if you have questions... 805/270-5621. Also, students can also sign up for text reminders using our class service, Remind. I will post directions for Remind later this week.
Curriculum: We are so happy for this semester's material. We will be focusing on curriculum and learning, personalized to you and your future. We have five main areas...the novel, career education, CAHSEE prep, non-fiction, and a personalized project. Start thinking about what matters to you!!! SO EXCITED!!
Please Note:
Vocab: We will be starting weekly vocabulary quizzes (to enhance your knowledge, prepare you for state testing, and make you sound way cooler) on January 26, 2015. .
Naviance: Naviance is the online registration and guidance program that is used at RHS. We will be registering for next year's courses and also using the program to investigate a career of your choice.
Syllabus: If you haven't received a copy or would like a new one, I will post it by Friday on the blog.
Gmail: If you don't have a gmail account for class, please see me and I will get you the instructions. (probably post by Friday)
