IEW-WM Fall 2020 (w/ calendar) SSJ

It is almost time for classes to begin! Our IEW based class is called Writer's Mark. 

Time and Place:
Writer's Mark 
classes begin on Wednesday, August 26, 2020. We meet via zoom from 1:00 to 2:45. The room and code will be shared mid-month. 

Class Google doc:
Your student should start a Google doc and share it, with editing privileges, to     
 <peggycortez@yahoo.com>
In the subject field type your student's name, Fall 2020, IEW-WM
Each student will use the same Google doc from August through December. New essays will be placed at the top of the doc. 

Expectations, Homework, and Levels:
Students should have their class google doc on screen by the start of class. They should also have a pen and notebook ready  for Key Word Outlining and extra note-taking.
Although assignments will be posted on our class website, students are expected to take notes and record the homework. Our class has three levels - novice, JV, and Varsity. 

Tuition
Tuition is $500.00 a year. I have held all deposit checks and will void them when tuition is paid. Unless you have paid via Zelle, the first tuition payment will be $250.00 and is due on the first day of class. 

If you will be paying tuition via U.S.Mail, please check your email for my address.
If you prefer Zelle, please send $1.00, and I will notify you when it clears. After we verify the transfer of $1.00, you may send the remaining tuition.
I use my name & phone number as ID on Zelle

1)  Create and share a Google doc with me. I must be able to edit. 
     Share to my yahoo email address.
