If you enrolled in my class for the 2010-2011 school year - welcome! All you will need is a 2-pocket folder WITHOUT prongs. Be sure you have pens, pencils, and paper, too. See you soon!

Yearbook Staff - Please send me an email and tell me about your summer! We will be meeting the very first week of school. I will see many of you in class. Talk soon!!! Ms. L

Students, Parents, Guardians, & Local Layendecker Enthusiasts,

Congratulations on being enrolled in Journalism!! (Yearbook/Creative Writing students - scroll down.) Here are some things we've been working on this year:

Week One: What is Journalism?

Week Two: Letter to the Editor and Editorial Cartoon

Week Three: The Five Factor of Newsworthy Stories & Collages

Week Four: Student Interviews

Week Five: Feature Article: Interview with a Classmate

All assignments are to be completed in class. Students wishing to go above and beyond may work on them at home. Very rarely is homework assigned. It is for these reasons that I do not accept late work simply because class time was wasted. Students who are eligible for grade recovery under county policy may complete work as directed.

Parents, please email me with questions.


Happy Reporting!

Ms. Layendecker



 



Donations:
I am always looking for supplies to be used for my students. We frequently are in need of white or colored printer paper, pencils, tissues, baby wipes (to clean white boards) and hand sanitizer. Any help is appreciated!

Congratulations on being selected for the yearbook staff! By now you have signed and returned your yearbook contracts. Remember that everything you do determines how great of a role you play in the yearbook.
