Enrichment


 * Enrichment**

Enrichment periods are meant for students to practice their skills in math and reading, especially using //primary sources//. We will work on practicing and applying skills like:
 * Identifying the main idea
 * Summarizing key points
 * Analyzing tone
 * Identifying point of view
 * Analyzing and interpreting maps, pictures, graphs, charts and other data.

Some enrichment activities will be graded, while others will not be graded. This is also a time for students to catch up on missed work or make up any tests and quizzes for class.

All students are expected to be present during enrichment periods. Administration has left it up to teacher discretion to determine If you are allowed to leave for any reason. My policy is that if you are signed up for a club, or are asked to meet with another teacher for any reason, you may not leave the room unless you meet the following criteria:
 * Have an overall grade in this class of an A or a B
 * Are up-to-date with all assignments, tests, or quizzes, and have no outstanding zero's in the grade book
 * Have made up all work/notes from absences
