Today we will be setting up our online English course.

So you will need a few things. They are as follows:

1) 3-ring binder for this class. You will keep it here everyday. 2) Dividers 3) USB drive. For those who need one, I will have some to purchase on Monday. They are $10 each.

We will also be reading //The Giver//, which will also need to be purchased from me. I will let you know the exact cost as we get close to the time we start reading. **Also, if you want to take an honors class, please let me know.**

So log into your Brainhoney account. The address is http://alhadihighschool.brainhoney.com

Remember, your user name is your first initial and last name. (eg: if your name is Ali Saleh, your user name is ASaleh. Your password is "password" (unless you changed it of course).

Your instructions are as follows:

1) Click on the "Welcome to M/J Language Arts 3" folder on the side. 2) Click on "course information" 3) Under school items, click on "Pace Charts" 4) Click on "Traditional Pace" 5) Print up this page, hole punch it, and put it in your binder. 6) Go to Course Syllabus, and print it out. Hold punch it and put in your binder. On the Pace Chart, you need to write in the due dates for each week. For my class, all assignments for the week are due on Thursdays. So the first due date will be 9/22. Write these dates on your Pace Chart: Week 1: 9/22 Week 2: 9/29 Week 3: 10/7 Weeks 4-18: (add 7 to each date thereafter) If you finish that, click on "Language Arts 3 - A Time of Change" and read. Once you are done reading, move on to the next section... "Navigating the Course" and read. Let me know if you have any questions. I better not see any messaging or YouTube today.
