HW:
If you haven't done so recently, LOOK AT YOUR GRADES. Monday, December 14 will be the last day to turn in any revisions or make-up work for this class. NO WORK WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER THIS DATE.
Sample e-mail from Tuesday, December 15:
"Dear Ms. Leclaire,
I know that yesterday was the last day for late work, but I just got around to writing a blog from a missed fishbowl, revising my hero's journey essay, and finishing my Kite Runner annotations. Can you please grade those? I really need an A in this class.
Thanks a lot! You're a great teacher.
Student
"Dear Student,
No. I cannot grade those. You have had plenty of time to complete those assignments, and you missed the deadline. Better luck next time. Happy holidays!"
Sincerely,
Ms. Leclaire"
