ATTENTION KIDDIES-WRITING IS A PROCESS

It always gives me great pleasure to read some of your essays. A lot of students are working hard to make improvements and see the value of good wtiting.

CONCERNS FROM LAST TEST ON FRIDAY:
1. It is obvious some students did review the multiple choice questions from the week nor did they focus in when in the media center.
THERE IS NO TIME TO WASTE AND YOU NEED TO BE DILIGENT
1. AT THE BEGINNING OF CLASS
2. AT THE END OF CLASS
3. AT THE MEDIA CENTER
I'm reevaluating going there very week, though this would bad for about half the students who use their time wisely when they are there
