Review Week English 10

Hello parents and students.  I apologize for not keeping up to date on the blogs for last week.  We had a busy week of review.

Tuesday June 12- we analyzed how we will be marked on the provincial, we looked at a quick scale writing rubric, and discussed compare and contrasting writing, reviewed PEEC

Wednesday June 13- we discussed integrating quotes and we did a compare and contrast literary response

Thursday June 14- we reviewed integrating quotes and took a break from review for a couple of days

Friday June 15- review break- watched dual survival

In today's class we started a practice English 10 provincial exam online.  Students will have the next two classes to complete their test.

Thanks for a hard week of review.  Please continue to go over your literary terms on www.studystacks.com

See you tomorrow
