English Final Exam Reminders

Please come to the final exam on time and be ready to participate during the entire final exam time. (You must remain in class seated until the bell rings.) I recommend that you bring a pencil and eraser to your English Final exam. No cell phones or electronics may be used until every student has finished the final exam. If you finish early you may work on an independent quiet activity. (Remember that finals are being taken next door and near our classroom that may last all period. Students may be working in your class all period so plan ahead.) Please return your novel, Of Mice and Men,  during library hours or with another final exam appointment. (We already had our return appointment and will not be leaving the classroom during the final exam.)
