Welcome back! Did everyone enjoy the wonderful weather?
Here is a metaphor for you to consider. If this school year were a mile race, you would be entering the final lap in ten yards. Work hard during the fourth marking period. Effort can make the difference between B and B+ or an A and A-. All a college admissions counselor sees is your final grade. Finish the race with an A!
This week we will work on a Harlem Renaissance project. Your topic will be poets of the time, because is is currently National Poetry Month. This project is worth 45 points and the first grade of the new marking period. Make your work count!
