I have never understood the question "How am I failing?" The answer is almost always "because you didn't do your work." If you are currently failing the 1st marking period, keep reading:
1. Did you submit your signed & completed Expectation & Contact Form Sheets? If you did, a 100 is in Thinkwave. If you did not there is a 0. If you did not, you have one final chance to turn it the missing form(s) at the start of your class on Wednesday, 10/2. This is the 3rd extension & will not be pushed further for any reason, including absences. Forms were given to every student either the 1st day or when you entered our class. Please find them as necessary & submit. If not, the 0 stays.
2. Did you sign up for Quizlet? If you did, by the deadline, with the appropriate username, yo have 100 entered. If there is a 0, you did not do one of the required steps above. You have until Tuesday, 10/1, to fix it for a 65. No grades will be changed after that date.
Also, if you had a proper username & then changed it, I deleted you. I check weekly for this, and delete anyone who does not follow the guidelines I set up for Quizlet.
3. Classwork grades of 0 - if you were legally absent on a day we did classwork, but you have a 0 for the assignment in Thinkwave, you must email me no later than Wednesday, 10/2 to have it changed before progress reports are done. Your email must have your full name & class period in the subject field to be open or it goes into spam. Your email must include the date(s) & names of assignments before I'll spend the time looking up your records in Eschool. You can use the assignment names & dates in Thinkwave. I will then check your attendance records. If you are correct, I will remove the 0. If not, it stays.
4. Absent but never made u the work you missed (not classwork) - sorry. Deadlines are listed in every assignment. Once a make up deadline had passed, work is fair game to go back to you &, therefore, no more make ups are allowed. Those grades will not be changed. If you fall into this category, please be more responsible regarding deadlines from absences.

RAK Wall
RAK = Random Acts of Kindness
To enjoy a pretzel, you must do the following:
1. On an index card in the green bin by my desk, write one nice thing you did for someone else since your class ended yesterday. There had to be absolute no gain in this act for you. The sole purpose & result of the act was to make someone else feel good, better, or valued.
2. Pin the card to the RAK Wall in the back of our classroom with a push pin (also found in the green bin...be careful) at the END of class.
3. You may take 2 pretzels after completing this task (the amount may vary moving forward based on the size of the pretzels I'm able to buy.)
4. You may only write one card per day.
Writing must be big enough to read from the front row. Write your RAK on he front, write your name & class period on the back. Pin the card with the RAK facing out.
Cards must be taken before the stat of class & pinned at the end of class. You may not write out the card while we are working on something else unless you are finished with that assignment. Violations of an of these procedures or rules will render you ineligible for 5 class days.
Starts Wednesday, 9/25.

Using your Phone for HW? READ THIS REMINDER!!
As a reminder to all of you using a cell phone (against my advice!) to do your homework...
1. You must scroll to the bottom of the page & click "View Web Browser" (I'm pretty sure that's what it says.) It is literally all the way at the bottom underneath the last post you see.
2. Once you click on that the screen will change to a PC?laptop/monitor version
3. Scroll the menu on the right-hand side for the due dates for your work.
As I've continued to say in class, the top or first post is NOT necessarily the work that is due the next day. All of you having this issue seem to be using your phone...and not following the directions above based on everyone who asked em about it today.
As I told many of you yesterday & today, if you are having trouble, email me before 4 pm (or I might not see it until the next day) or come to our classroom before 7:15 so I can show you on your phone or the computer in the room.
See you - & your HW!! - tomorrow!

Tokugawa Notes Needed for Class Work Grade Tomorrow...
Heads up - you will need the Tokugawa notes due today in class for class tomorrow. If you didn't do them I suggest you do them in addition to the notes due tomorrow, or you may end up with a 0 for a class work grade since you will be unable to participate.
Signed Sheets are Now Overdue
I will extend the deadline through Friday, 9/13 before handing out zeroes. This deadline will not be extended again.
If you turned them in by the end of today, 9/10, I will give you 125 instead of 100 to keep things fair.
Your Quizlet deadline is also Friday...

Do you know? We have a food pantry at BHS!
Are you aware we have our very own food pantry right here at BHS?
If your family is struggling in today's economy and access to food is an issue,please see your Guidance Counselor. There s a form for you to fill in with them for your food or hygiene needs.
If you're hungry, you can't concentrate. If you can't concentrate, you won't learn. If your family is in need, please see your Counselor. Only your Counselor will know (& they should know these things anyway to best help you this year), and the food comes in generic, reusable bags.
Help us help you. See your Counselor at any time this year if you need this service. It's free and it was set up to help YOU!
Late Hall & Minute Passes
As a reminder, Late Hall is scheduled to begin tomorrow. If you are coming to my class from Ross, or going to Ross from my class, please be sure to bring your schedule & your agenda book to the Discipline Office for a 1-minute pass. That means you will have 5 minutes to get to class instead of 4. No more than that. If you are late, you will be required to get a pass from Late Hall (which is usually room 1412) to enter class. You lose credit for whatever work was done or collected in the time you miss class. There are no make-ups for these zeros.
You are required to show me your pass in your agenda book. I will write t down on my seating chart. If you are coming from well into Ross, like the Gym, we can discuss the possibility of an extra minute for you to arrive. However this can only be done after class with proof of your schedule.
If you already know this is the case for you, you are welcome to email me a copy of your schedule to get the ball rolling. As always, all emails must have your fist & last name & your class period in the subject field or it will be moved to spam without opening.

DUE: Friday, 9/6
Read what follows before starting the HW due 9/6. That info is beneath this list of instructions & tips.
Here is how this works:
HAND COPY all notes into your binder. You will have a quiz USING THESE NOTES at the start of class on the due date. If you are late, you cannot make it up. If you are illegally absent or cut, you cannot make it up. If you are legally absent, you have until 9/10 to come before school to show me your notes. Follow the make-up procedure given out in class. If you fail to make up the work by the deadline, you will earn a 0.
Be sure to copy them just like I have them. It will be much easier for you to finish the quiz in the allotted time if you do.
Copy & Paste:
https://mrsramoglobal2.blogspot.com/2018/09/due-friday-97_5.html
Here is how this works:
- I will post the due date in the title of the post
- I will put any instructions needed in the post
- I will add the link to find the actual work in the post, long the make up info should you be absent & qualify for a make up, if offered.
- Any dates or info in the original post, where you are linked, does not apply to the 2019-2020 school year.
- "Copy & Paste" usually doesn't work on the links
- Using your phone never works well. You must use the "desktop version" of the blog, & past students have had issues accessing the work. None of his will be accepted as an excuse for not having our work since there is computer access available at school. (This first assignment you can likely do from your phone, but it is highly discouraged.)
- Homework is usually posted well in advance. You are welcome to print out any notes, etc due to copy at home if you don't have access. You MUST use Internet Explorer to do this. Chrome does not allow you to print the picture.
