Aloha and THANK YOU to all my current and former students at Elsinore High School for your nomination for the EHS Teacher of the Quarter-October 2019!
I am so honored and humbled to even be considered with such awesome teachers at Elsinore High School! Mucho Aloha!!!!! 🌺🌴🌊🌞⚓
It is imperative students study for at least 2 hours per night. NOT 2 hours for each class. Two hours TOTAL is the minimum time recommended by educational experts. Even if a student says, "I have no homework," it is still their responsibility to review, study and prepare for each class each and every day. This his how students "stay on top of their studies." ***Please see Mr. Caballero if you need further support in how to study effectively. I will help!
It is imperative students take advantage of the free tutoring available at Elsinore High. Attention all students! Have no fear, Homework Club is here! Everyone is invited to room 226 (Monday-Thursday) after school to get homework help from college tutors and teachers.
******Note: All students have "homework" assigned each school night in our World History class. World History Students are expected to review their textbook, and go beyond the textbook everyday. Students are also encouraged to use the internet to support student learning. Use YouTube, Crash Course World History, History Channel, Khan Academy, Shmoop, Google Searches, Wikipedia, etc...students today have more access to information to support their learning than in any other time in history. In fact, students have more access to information on ALL subjects than any King or Emperor in world history. So I say use it!!!! Review everyday. This is your homework when specific assignments are not given. So, you ALWAYS have homework during school day/nights. This is how you prepare for College & Career.
Students are encouraged to use internet resources to support their learning in ALL of their classes. Students are encouraged to study at least 2 Hours Per School Day/Night so they can “keep up” with ALL their classes. Students can review each school day/night and/or prepare for upcoming lessons. There is no reason to “wait” for any teacher. Today, students have access to more learning support systems and have access to more information than ANY king or emperor throughout World History. Now is the time to take advantage of these resources to learn more effectively and better prepare for College & Career! ***Please see Mr. Caballero if you need further support in taking advantage of 21st Century Technology. I will help!
