Week 26: February 5-February 9

It's been a rigorous, yet enjoyable week, as we've wrapped up our Grammar Boot Camp unit and focus on explanatory essays. Essay writing is difficult, but I'm hoping to break-it-down and have students engage in meaningful practice to make it manageable.

The trimester will end on February 16th. It's really important students get in all their missing work and give it their best to get their grades up. I'm available before/after school or during advisory if they require extra help. Remember too that students are required to read 20-30 minutes at home each day. Thank you for the ongoing support!
