ENGLISH 9 - Hey there!  Good work on "bettering" your sentences today.  YOUR LETTER IS DUE- TYPED - FRIDAY.  If you don't have a printer, feel free to e-mail your letter to me at kimc@nbed.nb.ca. ENGLISH 122 - Today, you  wrote a quiz on section II of Hiroshima, indicated a few ideas for a potential research essay (using support, of course), and began section III of the novel.  Don't forget your reflection for Friday.

English 9 - Today, you received your Article of the Week (due for homework tomorrow, of course!), we did a warm-up activity using Pearl Jam's "Jeremy" (thinking about ways to deepen your understanding of your reading and writing), then we worked a little on our friendly letters, if there was enough time.  Nice job!   English 122 - You were handed back some of your work, received your Article of the Week (due tomorrow), and wrote a short quiz on Section I of Hiroshima.  For Wednesday, please complete to the end of Section II, including the guiding questions.

English 9  -  We sketched a warm-up today to emphasize the power of commas (huge hot dog, anyone?), then you corrected a peer's answers to your Bloom's questions (period one did this), you received your Article of the Week (homework for tomorrow, right?), and we began a friendly letter assignment by analyzing the punctuation I used in my letter to you.  Good work!  Tomorrow, you'll be having an in-class information session with Mr. Savoy and/or Mr. Hayward about your Netbooks!  Wooo! English 122 - In class today, you received your Article of the Week (due for tomorrow!).  You also received your Hiroshima novel (love it as you would a new puppy), we completed a KWL chart to engage your prior knowledge and open up those beautiful passageways in your brain, then we identified which levels of Bloom's Taxonomy for Thinking are being addressed in the guiding questions you've been provided.  In class tomorrow, you'll continue reading, and complete the questions.

English 9 - period 1 - Great job today with the caption writing warmup!  In addition, you began creating your Bloom's questions for The China Doll.  No homework tonight, as we'll complete them (and a peer will answer them) tomorrow in class. English 9 - periods 2 & 3 -  Ditto on the captions!  You also completed all of your questions, and traded with one of your classmates.  For homework tonight, you must answer someone else's questions, as they'll be scoring them tomorrow. English 12 -

English 9 - period 1 - Good job with your Articles of the Week. You showed some great insight and EVALUATION (not just opinion, right?).  We also did a quickwrite using our friend Tarzan and his potential double life, and covered the intro to Bloom's Taxonomy for Thinking.  No homework for you tonight.   English 9 - periods 2 & 3 - Ditto on your Articles of the Week and Tarzan.  For homework tonight, please read over the short story, The China Doll.  We will use it tomorrow when we apply what we know about Bloom's to a question-writing assignment.   English 122 - Great questions today, folks!  Bloom's is turning you into better students already!  For tomorrow, your job is to provide answers for someone else's questions (they'll score them for you tomorrow in class), and be prepared to begin our research unit with a review of how to identify whether or not a web site is credible.

English 9 - Today, you completed your Mock ELPA, inputted the data using the Senteos, received your scored Article of the Week, and (possibly) did a quick-write.  Good job!    English 12 - We reviewed the levels of Bloom's Taxonomy for Thinking, and you got underway on your assignment using The China Doll.  No homework for the weekend.   See you all Monday!

Welcome back!! English 9 - Please complete the notation and the Food for Thought section for your Artcile of the Week.  Tomorrow, we'll work on complete your mock-Elpa.  Wooo!   English 12 - Complete the notation and Food for Thought for your Article of the Week.  Thanks!
