Not completing a lesson will simply move it to the next day, but not keep a student on pace. The pacing calendar below does not account for "Optional" lessons that will not count toward overall progress. Course grades are calculated as percent progress to goal over time and will fluctuate during weeks with no lesson. The pacing below accounts for 50% of the course to be completed each semester. 8/10/15-8/14/15 8/17/15-8/21/15 Unit 1: Lesson1: Parts of an Essay Unit 1: Lesson 1: Discussion Strategies, Unit 1: Lesson3: Essay Conventions Unit 2: Lesson 4: Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening Unit 1: Lesson5: Writing and Revising an Essay Unit 2: Lesson 9: A Psalm of Life Unit 2: Lesson 4: Predicate Adjectives Unit 1: Lesson 7: Motion SCANTRON DAY Unit 1: Lesson 1: Language Skills Course Introduction Unit 1: Lesson 1: Motion 1A Unit 1: Lesson 1: Discussion Strategies, Unit 1: Lesson 4: Parts Scantron and Course Prep Scantron and Course Prep, August s: Math and Language Arts (July 27th to August 6th) Unit 1: Lesson 3: Unit 1: Lesson 2: Prepositions Conjunctions and Interjections Unit 1: Lesson 2: Motion 1B Unit 2: Lesson 1: Chura and Marwe: Session 1 Unit 1: Lesson 5: of Speech Unit 1: Lesson 3: Motion Unit 1: Lesson 4: Motion 2A 1C Unit 2: Lesson 5: The Story of Scarface Unit 1: Lesson 5: Motion 2B Unit 2: Lesson 10: Recitation Unit 1: Lesson 8: Motion Unit Unit 2: Lesson 6: Sympathy Unit 1: Lesson 6: Motion 2C Unit 2: Lesson 11: Reflection Unit 2: Lesson 5: Unit 1: Lesson2: Essay Decisions Unit 2: Lesson 2: Chura and Marwe: Unit 1: Lesson4: Writing an Essay Unit 2: Lesson 7: The Happy Prince: Session 1 Course Orientation Assignment - Due August 20 Unit 2: Lesson1: What Is an Autobiographical Incident?
