Welcome to the Gr. 7-10 English Website!

This website is designed to help you, as a student or parent, stay on top of school assignments, upcoming projects, and requirements. Please browse through what is available, and use this website as a tool! Check your class’s calendar for daily homework assignments (updated weekly) and long-term projects and assignments (many are already listed).

We will cover grammar, spelling, vocabulary, various forms of literature, poetry memorization, and various writing assignments (including a research paper). For more details, see the policy sheet for each class.

GRADING PERCENTAGES:

Homework – 20%

Quizzes – 35%

Tests – 45%


HOMEWORK GUIDELINES:

Name goes in the top, right corner; assignment name goes on the top, left line.

Do not put vocabulary assignments on the same paper as grammar assignments, etc.

Please do not use paper torn out of notebooks; if you turn in a crumpled, torn, and/or messy assignment, be prepared to recopy it.

Rubrics must be stapled to literature and writing assignments prior to class (before the bell rings).

Homework is an INDIVIDUAL assignment, not a group project. Asking for help so you can arrive at the correct answer is different than asking for answers.

I review your homework to assess your understanding of the concepts discussed in class.
