Ladies and Gentlemen,
Unfortunately I had a death in my family and will be out on Friday [and probably Monday]. As I instructed today, we are finishing our portfolio's this week. Please use your extra time (the weekend and Monday) to fine-tune your portfolio. You can correct errors, reformat essays, reprint corrected letters, etc. It may also be a good time to use the Internet to track down addresses of former employers, people you have volunteered for, parents you have babysat for etc. Use this time to get ready for the real world -- because it's coming at you at warp speed.
I will be collecting and grading all portfolios next Tuesday (June 15th). You will know what your grade for the course is going to be by next Friday (June 18th).
If your portfolio is completely ready for grading and you have everything done for this class, I suggest using your time to study for your finals in other classes.
If you have questions or concerns about your portfolio or your grade, please feel free to email me. I will be checking my email regularly over the next few days.
Please respect the substitute teacher.
