Welcome Back!

Welcome back grade 10s and 11s.
On this blog you will find many useful links to help you along throughout the semester.  There are links to STM web pages, grammar rules, online dictionaries, citation rules and many other helpful sites.  As well, most of the books we study this year are available as e-texts, just click on the link.  If you are ever away or forget your books at school, there is no worry of falling behind in your reading.

On the blog, I will post what we did in class that day, what is for homework and what we are doing tomorrow.  This comes in handy if you are away from school and want to know what you missed or you find yourself at home and can't remember what you have for homework.

As well, I will post all assignments overviews and due dates - far in advance - so you can plan out and get things done in a timely fashion.

Explore the blog and use it as a tool to keep yourself current, up-to-date and ready for each and every class.

At the very bottom of the blog, you will find D'Angela's Brushes With Fame.  All pictures were taken by yours truly on my many life adventures.

Homework for 10s this weekend - bring a magazine so you can analyze an information text on Monday.  Get sheets signed for Wednesday.

Homework for 11s - review "Interlopers".
