TO ALL INCOMING GRADE 9 LITERATURE STUDENTS...GREETINGS!Well...it's almost the day that marks the beginning of the rest of your life...I sure hope you are all ready for it...I certainly am!
I would like to apologize for not having been able to follow up on the blogs anymore after the last posting I did when I was back in the States. Anyways, we still had a great 6-week run of blogging and responding...and all of you who religiously responded to it and kept abreast of the topics and discussions...you definitely earned good credit for your effort.
Our Grade 9 Literature Class will be in room 3-46...Ms. ABI's old room. I will brief you more with our
RULES & REGULATIONS when you step in my world on Tuesday, 14 August 2007, for my Blue Day Group, and on Wednesday, 15 August 2007, for my Green Day Group.
First Day Agenda...
Literary Terms Test...around 50 of the 82 terms...be ready! I want you to please have your
Literature 9 textbook,
WSP,
pencil case (if you have one), and a
notebook with you when you enter my class...that's all!
I DO NOT WANT any backpacks, school bags, handbags, or any other stuff as you enter my room. In short, have a PADLOCK and lock it in your lockers...if you decided to leave it outside and it gets lost...that's not going to be my problem anymore since I have already stated this here now...!
Questions are being asked on which story do we deal with first out of the three required books I asked you to read over the summer...the answer to that is we are going to draw lots and find out on Tuesday and Wednesday...I hope this clarifies it.
I guess that's it...see you all bright and early next week...ready to "
Rock-N-Roll" and "
Face The Music"...! Take care and be safe and send my regards to your parents...
CIAO!!!Mr. A
