Welcome to D'Angela Thoughts.
On this blog you will find course information, etexts to much of the literature we study, helpful websites to visit for your course and what we do daily, in class.
Each day (or two) I update the blog with what we did in class, what is for homework and upcoming important dates and assignments.
If you are away, simply go to D'Angela Thoughts and see what you missed.
If you left your books here, I usually have an etext link to click on. If I don't, well, at least you know what you need to catch up on upon your return.
This is a useful place to visit if you are away from school, if you get home and you can't remember what we did or what was for homework or you are unsure when the next assignment is due.
Please put it on your homepage of your phone and use it. After all, 185,000 followers cant be wrong.
Parents, Guardians and Students: Here is my Phone Policy
D'ANGELA'S PHONE POLICY
One of the biggest detriments to learning today is the increased reliance and use of cell phones.
I encourage you to speak with your child and to explain to them the importance of keeping their phone away and out of use during class. I will quietly speak to your child if they are using their phone in class and will remind them it can negatively impact their learning and chance for success in the class.
However, at no point am I going to confiscate a phone nor will I continually interrupt the lesson and the flow of the class for a student who is more interested in their phone than the content of the class and has now made the choice to ignore my request. It is simply not fair to the rest of the class. They will get one reminder a class. If they choose to keep using their phone, that is their choice.
I firmly believe this is a conversation for you to have with your child before semester 2 begins.
Thank you in advance for your support.
