Your descriptive writing assignment is due MONDAY (Feb 27th).  Please have the assignment ready to go at the beginning of class.  If you need to print off anything make sure you come at recess. 

Character Education posters are due Thursday.  This is a media mark and should be taken seriously.  You are grade 7 students the quality of the work should reflect that.  You will have one more period to work in class and then we are moving on.

Have a great weekend.

Rough draft of your multi-paragraph description is due tomorrow.  I gave you a period today to work on it, some students worked very hard others did not.  I will be VERY disappointed if there are students without work to edit tomorrow.

Happy LONG weekend.

This weekend you should be thinking about your descriptive writing assignment.  You will have some time in class but the amount of time will be directly linked to the effort you put in.

Today students finished up their quizzes.

Students should be thinking about their assignments.  I will answer any questions about the assignment tomorrow, as a class we will also agree on a deadline for the rough draft and good copy.  I would like to finish this unit next week, so keep that in mind.

Cheers

Today the students started their descriptive text quiz. Many students need a couple of minutes to finish up their quizzes, they will have this time on Wednesday.  I will have the quizzes marked as soon as possible and return them to the students. 

Students in EF7A can be working on their plans and ideas for the descriptive writing assignment.  We will review the assignment and discuss ideas in more concert terms on Wednesday, as tomorrow the students have their Valentines Day dance.  Students will be given time in class to work on their assignments, provided the time is used effectively.
