Students were given the course outline today. We discussed it as a class and talked about what we all need to do to be successful this year. Then everyone began their first journal topic. 

I have attached the topic below for those who nee to finish it up for homework.

Journal Topic #1

What makes you nervous about high school? What are some things about high school you are looking forward to?

* Think about what makes you nervous or anxious about this school year: exams, homework, social times, activities...

* What are some things you will try to do differently in order to overcome these anxieties?

* What are some things you think you will enjoy about high school?

You must write at least 1/2 page on all of the items discussed above.

Remember - good thoughts and good writing!!!

HOMEWORK - please bring your materials and your novel to class.
