Editing Practice

Dear classes,
I am very sorry that I can't be with you today. This is a very difficult time for my family. However, I need to make a few notes:
Period 2 - I have received wonderful reports. Keep up the good work!
Periods 6 and 7- I have received a list of several students who refuse to do work. This is quite disappointing. If I receive another "NEGATIVE" report saying that students are not working, and the sub refuses go over the work, I will change the assignment to something that will keep everyone engaged. I really need you to cover the editing material, but I also need to start another research project....YOU PICK. DO YOU REALLY WANT THAT TYPE OF ASSIGNMENT WITHOUT ME???? HHHHHMMMMMM......I WOULD THINK TWICE. Needless to say, I am quite upset with the report. I will deal with the issue accordingly!!

Trust me, all of the assignments you have been doing are being graded. I have a lot of extra time as I sit at the hospital.

I am sure this was just a misunderstanding, and the report WILL be much better for the rest of the week.

Have a better day,
Mrs. C.

Goal: Students will practice their editing skills
