Welcome to Jr. High English!
What an exciting year this be as we perfect our writing skills and become better communicators on & off the paper or in a digital classroom. We will learn this knowledge effectively through a variety of writing topics, presentations, group work, growing vocabulary understanding/usage, & developing confident editing & publishing skills.
"You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, & smarter than you think." - Christopher Robin
Online Learners:
Parents please have your student(s) check their email and their Google Classroom for assignments. I will send your student an invite to join our classroom. If you have noticed, our schedule is different this year. We have moved to a block schedule. Pay close attention to the day of the week your student(s) class is listed. I am not asking my students to login during my actual class, but to keep up with their scheduled work online. If I am to include an online learner for a live class, I will give them a weeks notice. Please be patient as we figure all of this out, and email with any questions or help that you or your student(s) need.
Email is the fastest way to reach me.
Please sign up for REMIND by class or with the code:
