CLASS SYLLABUS

Hurricane Harvey Assistance
It is my hope that those receiving this were not impacted by Harvey and my deepest
thoughts go out to those who were. We have compiled listings of resources that have come
through HISD e-mailings and information on where to donate items. I am hoping that this
listing is of assistance, but please feel free to contact your Grade Level Dean at Baylor
College of Medicine Academy at Ryan to assist with any needs as we heal from Hurricane
Harvey. We will work with the HISD Office of Interventions to provide support and local
resources.
6th Grade Dean Dean De Dios [email protected] 7th Grade Dean Dean Brown [email protected] 8th Grade Dean Dean Turner [email protected]
Deans will be able to assist on a personal level and direct you toward BCMA-R
student items of need, but in order to facilitate donations, we are going to comply with HISD
guidelines and refer you towards the following:
Donations (Items)
Donated items have been accepted at the Barnett Stadium, Butler Stadium and
Delmar Fieldhouse, since September 5, 2017 from 7:00AM-6:00PM). As of September
11, 2017, all donations will be received at Delmar Fieldhouse (2020 Mangum Road
Houston, TX 77092).
Donations (Financial Items)
All monetary donations must be made to the HISD Foundation, and the donation can
be made specifically for the campus that you designate.
Link to Donations: http://www.houstonisdfoundation.org/donate/
Uniforms
HISD has relaxed the uniform policy, but students may wear uniforms, if they have
secured them or been provided such. HISD distributed thousands of uniforms at 7
locations throughout Houston September 8th & 9th from 9:00AM-3:00PM, to assist in
this effort.
Deans will work with all students to assist with obtaining uniforms, once identified as
a need. Students who were not impacted by Hurricane Harvey should remain in
uniform, as they have secured such, any who have financial needs are always
welcome to consult their Dean or any campus employee for assistance.
Parents can feel free to contact HISD Student Support Services (713-556-6800) for
uniforms.

BCMA Instructional Agenda
This Week in ELA-R w/Mr. Barnes
Start of the School Week:
Students will take a Syllabus Quiz, which we prepared for the previous week. Students will also take quizzes home to
be signed and returned--if students do not return their signed quizzes, the teacher cannot input the grades in
GradeSpeed.
Students will continue to do Team and Culture Building activities in order to shape the climate and integrity of the
room. One activity includes, "Personality Plates", which is an activity where students have made "plates" about
themselves and will practice effective Public Speaking strategies to share out with the class.
Students will also be reintroduced to the T.P.C.A.S.T.T. Poetry model in order to help them decode, and process
higher level poetry. The teacher will model Jackie Ealy's "1,968 Winters". Students will do Robert Hayden's "Those
Winter Sunday's" for Independent Practice.
Middle of the Week:
Students will use the T.P.C.A.S.T.T. model to decode "Invictus" by Sir William Earnest Henley. Students will also
answer STAAR formatted questions over the passage as well.
Students will also continue "Team Building" by doing a "Tall Tower", "Hands On" Play Doh activity--this will
demonstrate to them how to persevere in tough situations and work as a team.
End of the Week:
Students will select an expository writing prompt and then select a graphic organizer by which to plan their writing
with.
*Parent Night is October 5th, 2017, which is a Thursday. All parents who attend, will earn extra credit toward their
student's Daily Grade.
If you have any questions, all parents can reach Mr. Barnes via cell phone or email--all students have the contact
information for tutorial or academic purposes as well.
