  • This is a Rehearse Assignment for ALL Students 3/31-4/3 For Ms. Schmit's and Ms. Kahn's classes.
  • Students on field trip will recieve their assignment there
  • Students on campus-
    • here's your assignment: click on the link and read Parts 1-3, or at least as much as you can. 
    • take notes and answer all the questions as you come across
      • This is a TIME based assignment- YOU just need to see evidence of engaging with the material in the link for entire class time given; expecting different work from different people! 
      • Take time to be thoughtful and reflective with your answers; looking for quality of work not just getting this "done".
    • Submit your work at the end of class on the daily work assignment. (Ms. Khan's students be ready to submit it at the beginning of next class)

  • Students need to hit the blue “Submit” button to enter their survey. If they do not hit this, their responses will not be saved.
  • This is mandatory to deliver today, students may not do any other work unless their parents have opted them out (I will email those very few teachers) or until they are finished.
