- Students are expected to read 5 books of their choice per quarter. How they manage that is up to each individual student. Twenty minutes a night is recommended.
- One extended writing assignment is due each week. Students are given the assignments, due dates and rubrics at the start of each quarter.
- Late work may be handed in within two days of the due date for 50% credit. Anything after that will not be accepted and will receive a zero.
- Students who are absent have 5 school days to turn in missing classwork. Papers are due ON THE DATE OF THEIR RETURN, as due dates have been provided ahead of time.
Welcome to my TAG English 8 class! I look forward to an excellent year filled with lots of reading, writing and growing! Be sure to check the KGMS page for supply lists. Supplies are the same across all 8th grade English classes. Students will need a notebook (spiral preferred, but marbled is fine), pencils, loose leaf, a folder and daily reading materials for self selected reading. TAG students will be provided with all the required novels. I look forward to meeting you on August 12th!
