A Week of Blended Learning: What it Looked Like for Junior Honors This Week

This week, I tried to be very purposeful in how students were selected to attend class.  Here is the break down of the week for Junior Honors English:

Monday:
All students attend class.
Film discussion with novel groups.
Discussion/assignment of argumentative essay.

Tuesday:
Two Reading Groups attend to work on drafts, get one-on-one assistance from Mrs. Schmitt
Two Reading Groups out of class to draft on own.

Wednesday:
Other two Reading Groups attend to work on drafts, get one-on-one assistance from Mrs. Schmitt
Yesterday's two Reading Groups out of class to draft on own.

Thursday:
All students attend class.
Whole class practice and individual practice for integrated quotes, MLA citations, works cited.
Get feedback from Mrs. Schmitt.
Return Literary Analysis Tests; discuss opportunity for retakes

Friday:
Selected students are invited to attend class.
Invitations are based on:
1. Make up missed test
2.  Redo your test
3. Work on MLA issues (students who need more practice based on yesterday's work)


Here are students working on the Tuesday/Wednesday drafting days:


Okay, okay, SP is on her phone, but she got right to work. ;-)
