I’m back! Is it a coincidence that I scored TWO 1-4-1s today and they were both from young women named Katherine? I think not! My first Rubber Duckies of the year!

Ooooh. Not another rubber duckie awarded to an another 1-4-1. Caleb has wanted that sophistication point all semester and with his insight and understanding of the rhetorical situation AND his style, he earned it! McKinney ISD Advanced Academics & Gifted/Talented McKinney ISD McKinney Boyd HS

And one more 1-4-1! Tobi earned the sophistication point because of his prose style and insight. I enjoy reading his essay and can’t wait to read his arguments! McKinney ISD Advanced Academics & Gifted/Talented McKinney ISD McKinney Boyd HS
