Hello Parents and Students,

It was nice to meet and talk to some of you at the back-to-school night! I look forward to getting to know you in more detail (I assuming that this email is going both to students and parents). I am attaching the course syllabus (for the year) and the course outline (for the fall semester). If you have any questions about either of them, feel free to email me at veritas.sohmer@gmail.com and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

In regards to the accountability sheets: I will not be sending out accountability sheets for the students. My hope is to have them depend on and use their planners more. The reasoning for this is that I desire to help the students become more organized and be able to plan for more than just a week. I realize that giving accountability sheets is common practice, but due to this class also being a study skills class, I am trying to help them use a planner and calander. I figured this would be good training for them to be able to think and plan long-term, rather than just for a week. In light of this, I will be giving the students course outlines to encourage them to organize their semesters and work (we will do this Tuesday, see outline).  I will, however, remind students of certain dates and other big assignments, as well as offer class time to work on bigger assignments. This being said, I realize that this is for 8th graders, so I will be flexible in coaching them in developing their study skills. However, they are quickly approaching high school, and I have standards/hopes that they start to prepare and organize like high schoolers should.  I know they are competent and intelligent enough to do this. I see a lot of potential with this group and I look forward to partnering with them, and you, to help them grow.

If there are any questions you have for me, or about the course syllabi or outline, please contact me through the email located in the first paragraph. I am looking forward to a great year!

Cheers!

Hello Parents and Students,

 

It was nice to meet and talk to some of you at the back-to-school night! I look forward to getting to know you in more detail (I assuming that this email is going both to students and parents).

The reasoning for this is that I desire to prepare the students for collegiate work, and I gave the students course outlines to encourage them to organize their semesters and work. I will, however, remind students of certain dates and other big assignments, as well as offer class time to work on bigger assignments. This being said, I realize that this class is 9-12, so I will be more flexible with those who are in 9-10.

In regards to the readings on the outline: I will be attaching the readings online through these emails because I do not believe I can just attach them on thinkwave for you to download. I will send the readings a week, or two, beforehand so that the students can prepare for class. I will be mentioning whether the readings need to brought to class. Furthermore, I will be mentioning the amount of reading that I want from 9-10 and 11-12 on the attachment, or on the email.

If there are any questions you have for me, or about the course syllabi or outline, please contact me through the email in the first paragraph. I am looking forward to a great year!

 

Cheers!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Please make sure the students memorize the words to this canon by next Thursday.

See you on Monday!

Good morning parents!

As you already know, we are dividing up the 5th/6th grade Latin class according to how many years of the language the students have taken instead of their grade level. I will be teaching the 3rd year students who have gotten about half-way through Logos 2 but have not done Logos 3. We are jumping to Lesson 26 of Logos 2 this Tuesday.

Please make sure your children bring their textbooks since I will no longer be scanning and uploading the pages to ThinkWave. If you have ordered the textbook and it still has not arrived, please email me this weekend and I can make copies before class.

We will be going at the pace of one lesson per day, which is still rather fast but I'm confident the students are capable of the challenge. Please see the new syallabus attached to this message and do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns about your child's progress or performance.

Thank you all for your support! I can tell many of you have been working very hard to keep your children up with the class. I'm sure this change will make life easier for everyone. Have a great weekend!
