Hello again,
Our classes once again have a very large assignment due in sophomore English and we would like your continued support on having your child complete this assignment in a timely fashion and be successful.
The assignment is on the book, To Kill a Mockingbird, the time tested sophomore high school English book. We’re sure many of you read that book in high school, too. Our writing prompt for this book is "How is the book relevant in 2020?"
The assignment was given on February 26th and we will have had about 12 classroom days to complete this assignment. It is due on the 10th of March. The one item that we are really stressing this time is something we have introduced and that is how to correctly cite academic works, and do a works cited page (bibliography) in MLA format. The entire essay should be about 20-25 sentences.
The assignment is worth 75 points. Just as with the cultural walk we did around Christmas, if this assignment is not done by the 10th we will issue an Incomplete (INC) for the quarter grade and assign a grade when it is received after break. Besides the 12 days in class there were also 2 weekends.
We would like to thank you all for your continued support on seeing that your child is successful in sophomore English. We also appreciate all the well wishes and the support we receive after we send out an email like this: Thank You.
Enjoy your upcoming break with your son/daughter!
Thank you,
-Ms. Sissener and Mr. Geske
