Welcome to the new year. I hope you had a wonderful holiday and that you feel refreshed for the next leg of our journey...... yes, that would be exams.

This week (January 9th) - all English class students have an Individual Novel Project due. This major assignment was given to you back in September - thus expectation is high. We have discussed the project in class many times and I have shown you samples of the expectation. I look forward to seeing your projects! Use the rubric to mark your own project ......... is it your best work?

Exam exemptions will not be determined until Friday, January 16th. All assignments must be in by January13th at the LATEST. A mark of 85 or more is required to be exempt.

Next week, January 12th, we will begin reviewing for exams. As soon as the exam schedule is released I will communicate to my classes in this blog as to when you write.

January 26th and 27th are turn-around days: no classes for students. The new term begins on January 28th.

Best wishes for the new year,
Ms. Norman
