This week, each class will be given the "Favorite Collection" - Picture/Writing Assignment.  The first part of the assignment has to be done at home.  Students will gather five objects that are important to them or that represent them and then they will arrange the objects and take a picture of all five of them together.  After the picture is taken, students can save it to a USB at home or email to me at teena.allison@nbed.nb.ca  Students will have 5 class times to work on the writing part of their assignment.  This will be done in PowerPoint.  The due dates are as follows:

7/8 BD - Picture due Sept. 26 and PowerPoint due Oct. 3

6/7 W - Picture due Sept. 27 and PowerPoint due Oct. 4

6/7 A - Picture due Sept. 30 and PowerPoint due Oct. 9

Welcome back to anther wonderful school year.  This year I will be teaching ELA to 6 Tozer and 6/7 Arsenault, as well as Language Arts to 6/7 Walsh and 7/8 Blakely-Doucette.

There will be many assignments throughout the year and students will have ample class time to work on these assignments. A handout will be given to each student explaining the assignment expectations.  At times, if students are not done their assignment, they will have to finish it up at home.  I will post homework when it is due, but each student is responsible to read for 20 minutes per night.  

All persuasive essays will be due on the following dates:

Grade 7A - due Dec. 19

Grade 6B - due Dec. 21

Grade 6/7W - due Dec. 14

Grade 7/8 - due Dec. 14

All essays must have a typed good copy. Students will also pass in their rough draft (edited), their persuasive map and their persuasive checklist.
