Sample Work:

Any time you see "Sample Work" in your ELA Lessons, it means you need to come and meet with me for a few minutes. It is a way to do a quick check-in before you take a major Unit Test.

This can be accomplished in a couple of ways:

1) Come see me at In & Out for a few minutes. (Most Popular Option) Please use the link on your planner to enter INO.

2) Book an appointment with me for a phone call of Live Lesson meet-up at a time that works for you. cgreaney.youcanbook.me
This meeting will only take a few minutes and it will give us the opportunity to review the major standards for the upcoming test. These meets are *REQUIRED* for earning your Sample Work points.

They CANNOT be made up after you take a test--they must happen before you take the test.

Retakes, Resets, & Corrections:

In Middle School ELA class, you are allowed to retake or "fix" any of your work you would like to, with the exception of Sample Work. There are a couple of ways to do this...

1) If you want an assessment to be reset, so you can take it again, you need to send me a WebMail. The subject line should read, "ELA Reset" and the body of your WebMail should include the Unit and Lesson numbers.

For example: "Hi Mrs. Greaney, I would love another chance on Unit 2: Lesson 7. Would you please reset that for me?" Once I have done so, I will reply and tell you that you are able to go back. At this point, the easiest way to get there is by going to your grade book, clicking Language Arts, and then clicking on the lesson number in the left hand column.

2) If you just want to fix certain questions on a test, instead of redoing the entire test again, you can send me a WebMail. The subject line should read "ELA Text Corrections for Unit XXX" and in the body of the WebMail, you need a numbered list of the answers you want to correct, the correct answer, and why it is the correct answer.

For example: Let's say you want to correct numbers 3, 7, 8, 11, and 16. So you would make a numbered list of these five questions, include what the answer should be, and then a sentence or two about why that is what it should be.
