TO ALL MY LITERATE 9 STUDES...
GREETINGS!
Nine Days and counting...and if you're safe, then off you go to Grade 10 Literature...! In the meantime, there's still a lot more to accomplish before you actually leave my domain. So...here it goes...
First of all...Choral Recitations this week...Green Day Groups on Monday (31 May 2010) while Blue Day Groups on Tuesday (01 June 2010).
Second...Odyssey Final Exam Presentation...also this week. I have given you my comments and suggestions on how to further improve your final product. It is up to you to heed my advice or go with what you think you want to do---your call!
Third...I would like you to please photocopy and present to me the complete pages of the LANGUAGE HANDBOOK (Pages 993-1039) from the back of your Literature 9 Textbook. I am going to require you to understand it well and work on this and try to master it over the summer so that when you enter Grade 10, you will be twice as prepared as you are now in terms of your English skills. Furthermore, I am also going to tell your Literature 10 Teacher about it so she can check it with you as soon as you meet her next Academic Year. DO NOT BE IDLE OVER THE BREAK and continue improving your English skills!
Lastly...get hold of the following novels over the summer and READ-READ-READ! These are the stories you will be taking up in Literature 10 next Academic Year. Start asking the Sophomores of this year if you can borrow their personal copies, that is, in case they bought it. Be ready with it...
- Fahrenheit 451
- Midsummer Night's Dream
- Night
- Animal Farm
- A Separate Peace
That's All Folks! GOOD LUCK to all your other FINALS this week and Study and Prepare for all of it really well...! Once again...Nine Days and counting...hang in there...CIAO!!!
Mr. A
