Trimester 3 Re-take Week
There won’t be any new assessment for trimester final. During this week, students can go back to any of their missing or incomplete responses in their Journal of Seesaw and resubmit with their revision work. If a student shows his/her improvement in the assignments, I will update the scores and change the grade in the gradebook. To show an improvement in the assignments, make sure to follow the direction carefully and show all the work such as writing down solving steps. If it’s hard to write on the computer screen, they can work on the notebook and upload the photo of their work. There will be no limit of number of submissions, so they can resubmit as many as they can to get better score during this week. The last day of accepting their re-take assignment is Friday June 19th.
*For more detail, please read the letter by clicking the link uner the date above.
