WAGGLE: Students are expected to complete at least 2 hours per week in order to get full credit for their weekly homework grade. Students who do not meet this requirement will be given a grade of 55. Students can make up that grade by doing additional time another week. Please encourage your child to spend at least 30 minutes each night completing their assignments. 

Students who make a grade below 100% are expected to correct their wrong answers and re-submit for partial credit for all assignments except vocabulary tests and some on-line assessments. Corrections can be done during homeroom, ELT, lunch or after-school. Students must have their homeroom, ELT or lunch teacher's permission. Arrangements for after school must be made in advance. Students are to be picked up by 5pm.  

Parents please check Campus regularly and monitor your child's grades and assignment completion. Assignments with a grade 55 and NHI in the comment box means that assignment was Not Handed In. Email me at baldwink@clarke. k12.ga.us for questions, comments and concerns. 

Extra Credit
Students who reach 75% completion with a grade 70 or higher on MobyMax State Test Prep by 5 p.m. on Sunday, March 13th will receive extra credit for the 3rd marking period. 


Social Studies

This week in social studies we will be finishing Unit 4 and students will be taking their first test of the 3rd 9 Weeks over Asia geography and culture.  The test will be Wednesday and study guides went out last week for the exam.  On Thursday we will be beginning Asia Government and Economics which will be a mix of both old and new concepts.  Continuing use of the Asia coachbook posted in Google Classroom to reinforce what we are doing in the classroom is very helpful.  Pages 156-186 cover Asia Government and Economics in the coachbook.  The study guide with answers for Wednesday's test is linked below.
