What a successful year! I feel exceptionally proud of all that students have accomplished throughout this year. Listening to their presentations over the last three weeks has shown me what mature young adults the students are becoming. Throughout the year students have grown and cultivated in skills that go above and beyond the classroom. Without the support, trust, and encouragement from parents, this would have been next to impossible. Words are not enough to express my gratitude. Nonetheless, I am extremely appreciative that I g0t to work with you with you all.
For the summer, students will be expected to complete the following items.
- Reading: Students should read a minimum of 2 novels written in English. It is encouraged that they read more than the required 2. Students are allowed to read whatever genre they choose. They will fill out a google form for each and every book that they read. You can also find the form at Books, Books, Books & More Book on my website. Here is a great list of books to help students decide what to read.
- Writing: Students are expected to write a minimum of 3 blog posts over the course of the summer. The topics can be anything they want, but each topic must be about something different. For example one could write about a vacation/travels, events/activities, movies/books, freewrite/creative writing, etc.
As always, please email me with any questions, comments, concerns, or praises. Have a great summer!
SO, we have to read 2 english book, and write 3 blog post. is that correct?
Yes, that is correct. It is a minimum and you can ALWAYS do more.
Can we start writing this week?
Probably start during summer since it is summer work. Also, your blog posts should be long enough to describe what you are writing about.
And about how long should each blog post be?
I think maybe at least 3 paragraphs…?
