Week of 13 April 2020

The goal of this English class is to produce critical thinkers and problem solvers. Students are not only reading for comprehension but for meaning and relevancy of the work as a whole. Literature is also an example of good writing. The writing improves when a student reads. Vocabulary also improves because the student is learning to read in context. We want successful students who can think critically and communicate effectively. 



I am hoping you are well and safe.  I miss seeing you, and I miss your thought-provoking discussions and analyses, your creativity, and your enthusiasm.  Please know that I am thinking of you and also know that we will all get through this together.  Take care of yourself and your family.  Be safe.
