Rain in Al Qua'a

April 29  It has been raining and many students have been enjoying the wonderful weather. However if school has been missed it is important to get the work done. I have included some more files for students to work on. These include vocabulary, connectives, and the planning for the first IST, which is a Compare/Contrast essay.

We have also completed our first vocabulary quiz. (first 5 vocabulary words)  Please see Mr Kim to do the test.

On Tuesday we are working on our first IST (Compare/Contrast Essay) If you missed class on Tuesday, please download the assignment, complete it and hand it in to Mr Kim as soon as possible.

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.

Welcome to my English Class Blog

I am just setting this up. I hope it allows my students and their parents to see what is going on in class. I will try to update it weekly and will include files for any handouts needed for your ecart folders.

There is also a place for you to comment or ask questions if you need clarification on anything.

I hope this works :-)

Remember Monday  March 25 is your EMSA test. Please review the sample questions and if you want some extra practice readings to work on, let me know in the Comments section, and then come into the school to pick up the practice test.
