Vocabulary and Reading Assessment

The vocabulary is finished and most of the students did very well.  Reading assessment was much easier than the assigned reading, Twilight, however, some students made careless mistakes.  We reviewed our test and went over all the questions to make sure we understand.

This week we reviewed science.  It has been a long time since we worked on our science and we're a bit rusty.  I spent a lot of time explaining science concepts and I think the kids really appreciated it.  We are currently studying atoms, molecuoles, density, volume, mass, and etc.  It's quite exciting if you can apply it.

Comments for my students:

Teddy, your vocabulary was good but your reading assessment was horrible.  You need to be more careful next time when you take the test.  For science review, you left early and you didn't finish.  You didn't even clean up.  Please be more responsible next time.

Pon Pon, you did a great job for both of your tests.  Your reading assessment was excellent and your writing was very well written aside from few spelling and grammar mistakes.

MJ, vocabulary is fine but I am disappointed about your reading assessment because you just wrote it very fast without thinking about it.  Your essay was rushed too.  It repeated the same thing over and over again to fill up the page.  Don't let me see you do that next time.

Anne, I see you try in class and I do see the improvements.  Please keep it up and I think school work will become easier and easier.

Betty, you did a fantastic job on both of the exams.  I see a huge improvement in you.  Congratulations.

Howard, both test you did fine but I think you really need to concentrate in class so you can finish your work earlier so you can have more free time to relax or do things you like.  You waste a lot of time watching other people.  This is not a people watching class.

Hope you guys have a good weekend.  See you Monday.
