Year 112A English

Well, we are at our first major assessment post and from what I can see so far, there is some really good work happening in those folders 🙂

Just to re-cap the discussion we had today about our schedule for next week:
1. Monday 2nd December-go straight to S5 for the PATS Test (bring your own device if possible)
2. Read the short story A Blow, A Kiss before Monday
3. The rest of the week will be devoted to answering the in-class on A Blow, A Kiss
4. The in-class is set for Monday 9th Dec

Have a lovely weekend!

Blessings,

Hi everyone,

Just a quick reminder about our decisions on THINGS DUE.
1. I will get your drafts back to you tomorrow and you will return the good copy by this Friday 29th Nov.
2. You will read pages 17-20 of the handout I gave you today Understanding the Course Concepts and you will do the activity on page 17.
3. You will sit your PATS Test this coming Monday 2nd December and will meet me at S5 to launch straight into it.

Thanks for all your drafts, so far they have been terrific. Well done! I am very proud of all of your efforts.

Blessings,

Mrs. Still

Dear all,

This is just a little reminder about the homework that I am sure you have already in your diaries, but here it is again anyway!

Read page 2 of the handout that I gave you today and complete pages 3,4,7 & 8.

You are all doing such a great job so far with our class film analysis, well done!

Blessings,

Hi everyone,

Well, you all have been doing a MARVELLOUS job so far! Congratulations on your excellent contributions to class discussions and your homework submissions.

Keep up the good work-Christmas is almost here and we have a little breather 🙂

Don’t forget your homework due in on Friday morning:
Finish doing the close reading of White Fantasy, Black Fact that we started in class today.

See you then,

Mrs. Still

Book Club Update

Hi Book Clubbers,

I have phoned Read-a-Lot Bookstore and they can order in the Maze Runners for $16.99.

It will take about two weeks to get to us.

If you want to order they would like a 50% deposit.

I hear that the only two books left in the bookstore were snaffled by two of our members already! Well done!

Alternatively you could order it online at the Book Depository where I saw it for $8.63

I personally would like to support our local bookstore, but I have bought online before as well, so don’t feel condemned if you go internet shopping!

Blessings,

Mrs. Still 🙂
