TO ALL INCOMING GRADE 9 LITERATURE STUDENTS...

GREETINGS!

A lot of you have been asking me every now and then when am I going to post the additional Literary Terms...the answer to that question is..."on the board of the classroom, the first Friday we meet as a class in Grade 9 Literature". Besides, I have already given you two of the additional terms in blogs three and four. Therefore, with this said, the only words I am testing you when we meet during the first day of school will be 50 out of the 82 Literary Terms from the list below...that's it!

I hope this clears things up...take care and be safe always. STUDY-STUDY-STUDY...but do not neglect to enjoy your vacation as well and do send your families my regards...! Don't miss me too much...CIAO!!!
