Hello Class!

I hope that your spring break was relaxing and that you are all healthy and feeling ready to start working on your school assignments again.

Today, we will have another Google meeting at 2:00. I would like to use this app regularly to meet with you, answer your questions, and read together. If you were unable to join the meeting yesterday, please join us today at 2:00 pm. I have emailed you all a new code and link to the meeting for today. If you have not downloaded the app on your phone, you will need to do that to join the meeting. Please email me if you have any questions.

The Meet app will look like this on your phone:

This Week’s Assignment:

You will need to complete this work (below) and email me the writing assignment by Thursday, April 9 (if you need the weekend to finish this work, that is OK). The writing assignment is for marks.

  1. Read the introduction to Who is Malala Yousafzai? (if you didn’t do this yesterday)
  2. Complete pg. 4 (Before Your Read) and pg. 7 (Dictionary Detective – Ch. 1) of the book study booklet (yesterday)
  3. Read Ch. 1 of the book (re-read if you did already)
  4. Do the assignment on pg. 8-10 of the book study booklet.
  5. Write a paragraph in your journal about Ch. 1 -I will explain this in the meeting today. This is the assignment that you will need to email to me. I will post more instructions about this tomorrow.

Please continue to check your emails and the blog each day. You can also email me if you have any questions.

As you know, classes will not continue in the school building for the rest of the school year, so students will continue to do school work at home. I strongly encourage you to continue with your learning by participating with me in our daily English classes. The school year is not cancelled! You will receive your final mark and 10E credit and will be ready to move to 20E if you continue to participate in this class. I am here to support you in completing your educational goals. Thank you for continuing to participate in my class.

Reminder:

This Friday, April 10 is Good Friday, so there will not be any classes or meeting on this day.

See you at 2:00! 🙂
