"COE All-Stars" Video: CLICK HERE if you want to watch it and congratulate some of your peers on such a BIG ACCOMPLISHMENT.
Why am I not posting one specifically for Honors? You're all All-Stars and I'm super proud of all of you. I have really enjoyed teaching your classes (more-so in-person than online, but what are we going to do??). You understand the value of a strong work ethic and have continued to be dedicated to your education. Keep doing this. Your future rewards will be tremendous. There are a number of "Regular" students who could definitely handle honors, but they just need someone to believe in them. I'd like to put those kids in the spotlight.
*****************************************
ASSIGNMENTS:
1. There are 6000 (yes, not a typo) vocabulary words listed at the link below. Choose 10 words and write coherent, intelligent sentences for each of them. Please challenge yourself by finding words that you don't already know. Save it in a Word document and email it to me or share it on 365. Do not repeat previously used words or share files with others unless you would like to be subjected to severe numerical punishment in the grade book. Thank you for your cooperation and have a fantastic day.

Do we have vocab this week? If so, you could choose to write your sentences for those words instead and submit them following the requirements above. Otherwise, follow the original assignment, then you may spend the period studying or staying busy silently with other work.
BE PRODUCTIVE AND DON'T ANGER THE ADULT WHO IS IN CHARGE.
Thank you,
Mr. Mensch
