Welcome to High School English! This week in grade 9 we went over the course outline and discussed the materials needed for class, the units that we will be covering and most important, that this class will focus on preparing each grade 9 for the Literacy Assessment written in January. Students must pass this Literacy Assessment in order to graduate! It is extremely important for students to be in class as this is where skills in reading and writing will be developed. Grade 9 started their first writing piece for this class; an autobiography. The final copy is due Friday September 18th. We also started our journals and have written 2 entries. *Reminder to students: Please find a novel by Monday's class for your independent novel study.
