One really important reason to post pone our vocabulary quiz is because students need time to study. If we took the quiz today, a lot of the students would not be prepared. If the students are not prepared, they might not do as good on the assignment. If they do not do as well on their assignment, their grades will suffer. If their grades suffer, it looks like Mr. Langley is a bad teacher. Since he is a great teacher, that would be tragic.
Another reason that this vocabulary assignment should be postponed is because some of our students are already really behind. If this is assigned today, it will just add up to the pile of homework. For example, Morgan was absent. She was already behind in this class, but being absent just put her even more behind. If this was started on Wednesday, she would have some more time to catch up and not drown in homework.
A lot of people need to catch up. My blogs are all finished, but I have to use proper citations in my text. This will take me awhile by itself. I cannot imagine how the students who are behind on blogs feel. I am only behind on citations, and I feel like I am lost. There is just so much time consuming things. We really need this day to relax and catch up. This is why the vocabulary should be started on Wednesday instead of today.
