Cultural Museum Project Sophomore English MVHS

Message From: Peter Geske


 

Dear Parents,

As your child’s sophomore English teachers, we first want to wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving.

Since your child will be home for the next few days, we thought it would be a good idea to assign an assignment that has to do with culture, and most probably family. Your child has the full assignment on googleclassroom and can show it to you at any time. 

We will be having a “Museum Walk” on December 2nd and 3rd in our classroom. That is when the project is due.  We assigned the project on November 21.  They had 5 days of work time in class to complete it, plus a weekend, and many nights. 

Many students chose to talk and socialize during the work time.  We just wanted to bring it to your attention that the project is 100 points and due the first and second day after Thanksgiving.   This project could really boost some student’s grade and is not a traditional paper, but rather a more artistic approach to an assignment while still being aligned to English standards.

Please discuss with your child the importance of this project and that it is due the first and second day that we return from break.

Please don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions.

 

Best regards,

Ms. Sissener and Mr. Geske
