Dear Parent(s):
Welcome to a new school year. My name is Mrs. Benson. I began my career at Lakeview several years ago as a student teacher. Since that time, I have taught Language Arts and Reading to regular education students as well as accelerated and gifted students. The following is a brief overview of the homework policy, curriculum, and expectations for this year. Please read the material below. If you have any questions, please contact me via email, sbenson@ccsd66.org or by phone, 630.783.5023.
Homework Policy:
Students are expected to turn in all assignments on time. Assignments 1 day late result in a loss of 25% of the grade, and assignments 2 days late result in a loss of 50% of the grade. When a lesson or unit is completed, students can no longer turn in missing assignments for that unit and will receive a 0 on any work that was not completed during that time.
Books to be used this year:
English, English Workbook Plus, Language of Literature, Buckle Down ISAT, and various novels. Textbook are always available for overnight check out.
Curriculum to be covered includes:
Short Stories, Poetry, Non-Fiction, Essay writing, Grammar, Public Speaking, ISAT Preparation, Journal Writing, Vocabulary Development, Book Reports
