HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I hope everyone had a good break and had lots of time for relaxing and having fun.  Only a few more weeks until the end of term.

ELA 9A

Students started to discover what they know about Romeo and Juliet written by William Shakespeare.  Then students researched and wrote a paragraph on why Shakespeare is considered, by many, to be the greatest playwright whoever lived.  Students had two classes today to research and submit this paragraph on Google Classroom.  I have a couple of students who still have outstanding final projects for The Outsiders, which were originally due December 4th. (Brianna, Jadyn, Dillon, Dawson J, Dawson W, Thomas W.).  Please get done ASAP.

French 7A

We shared something we did over our Christmas holidays, in French.  We also started reading and discussing the legend of "Le Diable et Les Loup-Garous."  Students will eventually be creating their own monster and describing it in French.

ELA 9B

Students continued to work on researching a topic for their Persuasive Essay #2.  I have a couple of students who still have outstanding final projects for The Outsiders, which were originally due December 11th. (Jairo, Sebastian, Kaitlyn, Easton, Joel, Ramani).  The following students also need to finish their Persuasive Essay #1 - Sebastian, Jairo, Ramani.  Please get done ASAP.

*Ski Trip forms are due Friday.
