Grade 11 Vocabulary Trimester 3, 2013

Welcome back to the start of Trimester 3

Welcome back for the final trimester this school year. We will be starting a new unit focussed on Citizenship and Civic Responsibility.
 

We have a new list of vocabulary words each student is expected to know by the end of the term. I am including it as an attachment and if you would like to see how your son is doing, feel free to use it to help them review the words with you.Grade 11 Vocabulary Trimester 3, 2013
 

Unfortunately I do not have the Arabic translations, but that is also something your son could work on at home. We also review the words in class, but if he has already translated the words at home, then it becomes simply a review in the class.

 

I will be adding other files as we continue on in the class. Please check on the website and if you have questions, please contact me or come to the school. I would be happy to meet you.
