Welcome, freshmen, to our class blog!

This is the happenin' place to come and visit for updates, reminders, and assignments. Don't forget that you can email me anytime - nwhite@hpregional.org - and that you now have a Google account through High Point, which means you have a full access of Google apps. Go to the High Point website and click on the link to log into the student Google accounts, and make use of this valuable tool.

Below and to the right you will find some valuable links to helpful websites. Below this, you will find Posts that will be my notes to you on various topics, assignments, etc., throughout the year. Be sure to check the older posts, as there may only be one currently showing.

Now, you must remember what Coach Rex Ryan has promised, over and over, that next year is the year for the JETS!! J - E - T - S JETS JETS JETS!!!!

And Let's Go Mets!!!

**Please hold onto the literary terms list that was given to you a few weeks ago. KNOW THEM. We will be adding to this list.

**Be an active reader - use Post-its, and have conversations with the author! Always think about what message is being sent; what purpose is at play?

Speak...OUT!




Continue to read Speak - be through MP 3 by Tuesday, Nov. 30; finish the book by Monday, Dec. 6. Use Post-its for powerful descriptive language and observations that hint that Melinda needs psychological help. You might also want to use Post-its for unfamiliar vocabulary.
See here for info on the author, Laurie Halse Anderson - and guess what? You can follow her on Twitter or you can visit her online!!
