10 days until November...

Don't forget --- you need 2 blog posts per month! You still have 10 more days to get writing and reading ;) Blog entries will be checked November 1st. I will be posting a rubric (for how your blog will be assessed) on the English section of the class website as well as in the FORMS and DOCUMENTS section. Rubric assessments will be sent directly to your SAM email address :)

So long to 7x...

7x is going through a wee bit of a change. SAM was able to hire another 0.5 teacher and so 7B will now have their very own CORE class!!! We will miss the 7 students (Shanglin, Haley, Nora, Umeko, Rohan, Jenny, and Hiral) from 7B that made up the 7C+7B=7X group and we wish them luck with their new teacher.

So... what do you think of the change? Try to see the positives... I know it can be hard sometimes when we go through changes but it will benefit everyone. The Grade 7 classes will be smaller ;)
