English 3 CTT: Suson/Salvador (2)-2nd Period Assignments

If you are not happy with a TDQ score from 4th quarter, you may redo or complete for the first time the TDQ from "Myth of the Latin Woman." We will host a Google Meet on Thursday, 6/5 from 12-1PM to support your comprehension of the story and to help you begin writing a quality TDQ.

If you are not happy with a TDQ score from 4th quarter, you may redo or complete for the first time the TDQ from "The Lesson." We will host a Google Meet on Tuesday, 6/2 from 12-1PM to support your comprehension of the story and to help you begin writing a quality TDQ.

This week's writing assignment is due on Monday, 6/1 BEFORE 11:59PM. If you participated in discussion or you completed a draft for this week's story, you should have a head start on how to respond to this question. Attached is the graphic organizer to aid you (you DO NOT need to submit this). Today, 5/29, is an independent work day. Monday's "class time" is also dedicated to working on the TDQ. Please "see" us during office hours (12-1PM) on either day if you have questions or need support on your writing. We will be using the same rubric we've used all year for TDQs. Please submit your work here on Google Classroom by Monday, 6/1 BEFORE 11:59PM.

We have decided to change the CEA work assigned each week to a TDQ draft to help improve TDQ submissions. The point of this is to encourage revision through implementation of teacher feedback and to focus on producing high quality work. Your OPTIONAL assignment is to complete a draft of the TDQ (the final TDQ will be due on Monday night 6/1). You will not earn points for this assignment, but you will receive specific feedback to help you earn a higher grade on your TDQ (which is a significant component of your 4th quarter grade). If you have questions about this week's agenda, today's assignment, or your grade please join our Google Chat from 12-1PM.

1) One of my future aspirations is to have a better work- life balance. 2) Being forced to slow down due to Covid-19 and maternity leave have helped me to put my life priorities into perspective. Life at school ran fine without me while I was home with the baby. Also, realizing how short life can be (due to Covid-19) made me want to focus more on spending time with my loved ones and enjoying life since time is so precious.

This week's writing assignment is due on Monday, 4/27.  Many of you have already completed a quality CEA for this week's TDQ question or if you were present for yesterday’s discussion, you should have a head start on how to respond to this question. Attached is the graphic organizer to aid you (you DO NOT need to submit this).  We will be using the same rubric we've used all year for TDQs.  Please submit your work here on Google Classroom.

1) The coronavirus shifts have helped to confirm that I really thrive from having structures and routines in my day. I have been able to figure this out because I tend to be extremely unproductive and cranky when I do not have a plan for my day because I tend not accomplish anything fully. As a result I feel less capable, which causes lower self confidence, irritability, and pessimism. 2) The coronavirus shifts have also confirmed that our healthcare system desperately needs reform. This is evident through countless examples: My sister and her co-workers have not been protected from the workplace hazards. Those without insurance or clout may not receive proper care or will receive much less expedient care and as a result some have even died. There aren't enough hospital beds and ventilators for all those that need it. I can go on and on...

This week's writing assignment is due on Tuesday 4/21 because technically we don't have class today (4/17) since it's a professional learning day for teachers. Many of you have already completed a quality CEA for this week's TDQ question or if you were present for yesterday discussion, you should have a head start on how to respond to this question. Attached is the graphic organizer to aid you (you DO NOT need to submit this). We will be using the same rubric we've used all year for TDQs. Please submit your work here on Google Classroom.

Your response needs to be in complete sentences and needs to be completed by Friday, April 17 at 3PM to earn the bonus ATL points. See my response:
1) I am grateful for my family. My sister as a nurse works at a hospital here in Chicago. Though she's relatively young and healthy, she contracted Covid 19. After a rough 2 weeks, she was able to fight off Covid 19. It has been scary because my mom is considered a high-risk population, and she lives with my sister. Luckily, she was able to move to my brother's house before she contracted the virus. 2) I am grateful for my job. Many people I know have been furloughed, laid off, or had their wages reduced. I feel fortunate that I am able to still work and earn my normal wages during this time because financial strain would add to the uncertainty and anxiety of this time. 3) I'm grateful for my ability to hang out with friends. I miss spending time with the people in my life who have helped shaped who I am and who bring me joy. There's something that's just not the same when talking over FaceTime or gathering on Zoom.

Hey all, just to lighten the mood a bit, answer this question of the day with a thoughtful response to earn 2 bonus AtL points. I'll add them to the lowest scoring AtL grade you currently have. My response to the question is below:

If someone gave me $1,000, I would buy a ticket to Reno, Nevada, rent a car, and hike in all the National and State Parks in California that I wanted to see: Redwood, Lassen, Yosemite, Death Valley, and Sequoia. Then I would end my trip in San Francisco (because I loveeeee that city) and I would fly home. Now, $1,000 wouldn't cover all of that. But, it would cover at least the transportation and some of the lodging.

Stress is an unavoidable part of life: whether it's good stress (helping prep for a family party) or bad stress (studying for a big exam). And right now, everyone is dealing with a little extra stress. Labeling the thing that is making us stressed is the first step to responding thoughtfully to our feelings.

-Personally, I feel stressed about not seeing you guys and not knowing how you're doing. A meaningful part of my work is being able to check-in with you guys, and not having that every day is a tough change. I'm also still getting used to what's expected of us as we transition to e-learning, and that's been weird.

-I've been write out a schedule each night charting out what I'll do and for how long. The structure makes me feel like I'm using my time meaningfully. It might sound cheesy, but I'm also trying to do more positive framing. For example, instead of thinking "I have to cook dinner," I'll change it to "I get to eat something delicious that I made." I know, cheesy, but I'm surprised by how it brings up my mood just a little bit.

Can't wait to hear your thoughts! Remember, thoughtful responses will earn 2 AtL points towards a low-scoring AtL assignment.

What's working for you right now? Have you been able to distract yourself with a movie? Find wisdom in a book? Lose yourself playing a game? Learn- or laugh- thanks to a podcast? Have fun at a digital gathering?

-Tonight I'm baking chocolate cupcakes from scratch for my best friend's birthday tomorrow (I can only drop them off at her house and watch her eat it through the window I suppose?).
-I just started reading "Little Fires Everywhere" by Celeste Ng because it's been on my reading list since the summer and now there's a show on Hulu (got to finish the book before I watch it!). Also, my friends are buzzing about "Tiger King" on Netflix, so I may check that out next.
-I've been listening to a mix on Spotify called "Isle of Calm" because it's light enough to play in the background as I try to get Llewyn to sleep.
-I keep telling myself I will exercise since I just got cleared from the doctor on Friday, but I haven't been motivated. I think rocking the baby counts, right? Maybe next week...

Share what you're into and/or thoughtfully respond to others to earn a couple ATL points to enhance a low grade.

We will be working on your OER every day in class. If you would like feedback, you need to be following the class deadlines so I can provide feedback via this Google Classroom Assignment.

Due Dates:
Intro Paragraph 1/21
Body 1 Paragraph 1/22
Body 2 Paragraph 1/23
Conclusion 1/24
Final, complete OER: due 1/24 BEFORE 11:59 pm

Remember, unsubmitted papers cannot be graded. Papers not submitted before 11:59 pm on 1/24 will automatically earn a late grade.

Be sure to copy and paste your rough draft into the assignment labeled with your name before starting revisions.

You need to have the first rough draft of your literacy narrative complete by Tuesday, 10/8/19 at the start of class. You will be graded using the rubric on organization (20 points) and thematic development (20 points). If you would like feedback before then (this weekend or Monday AM at the latest) you can send us an email and hit submit. Attached also is the literacy narrative brainstorm to help guide your writing.
