Assignments

Hello,

We are approaching the end of the first term. Many assignments are coming due. On October 14th there is a short story due, students are working on this in class with a group.
October 24th the journal is due, this is 2500 words, students do have time in class to work on this. October 24th is also the midterm for English. There will be reading comprehension questions and a writing piece. We have also discussed the elements of a short story and different genres of literature.
Students should be reading novels, some need to do this nightly to complete the requirements for the term. Reading responses are due the week of the 24th.
Students do work on these in class, but some need to spend some extra time on this at home. If you have any questions please email me.
Ms. Leslie
