ELA+Home+Unit+2

=__PLEASE READ__: Welcome to Apex Unit #2 English Language Arts wikispace.=

We will be using the Wikispaces in order to get more out of the class. Apex is good at getting you to fill out worksheets, but it's not good at getting you to remember what you are working on. Here, we will be discussing the online content in order to get more out of what we're learning, to hear other perspectives about the work, and to stretch our thinking about the content and ideas we are engaging.

You will have plenty of opportunity to discuss, comment, and engage with the material here regardless of where you might be in Apex.

__**What to do**__:

If you notice on the toolbar menu above this message, there are "tabs" to different places on this website. Right now we are on the "page" tab. When you visit this page, you will always see this message first. Where we do all our thinking and working will be on the "discussion" tab.

Click there to see what new discussion you are expected to engage in. Keep in mind that discussion posts are numbered but may LOOK out of order. Please make sure that you are reading and responding to the posts in order. They are numbered in chronological order to match where you might be in Apex.

=***//*//** //PLEASE REMEMBER--when responding to all posts online, __PLEASE WRITE IN PROPER ENGLISH__. That means, NO LOWERCASE "I", NO TEXT-SPEAK (do not write "u" when you mean "you"), use punctuation at all times, **DO NOT COPY AND PASTE OTHER STUDENT RESPONSES**, and please put effort into your responses. Go back to posts to see if there is something you need to change as often as possible. Once you get the okay that your post is acceptable, then you are good. Until then, please make sure that what you are submitting is being accepted for credit. **Posts that do not get edited as requested will be deleted**.//=
