I'm absolutely excited to welcome everyone back!
I'm sure you'll notice right away that it's a bit different being in grade 8 -- lots of responsibility and accountability on your shoulders now. But at the same time, you've still got the same involved and caring teachers to help you along the way.
At any rate, I'd also like to take the opportunity to welcome you to our classblog! For the grade 8s reading this, you'll notice that the design is a bit different -- but it's pretty much all the same. Grade 7s who are doing geography and history with me: with this blog, you'll never forget what you had for homework. At the same time though, you'll never have an excuse as to why it's not complete! ;) Sorry!
Everything you'll need to know for Hist/Geo, Math and Language will be updated under the "Homework" tab. Periodically, the "Home" page will be updated with upcoming events and news that you or your parents might need to know. There will also be a lot of good information on the homepage related to some new learning and strategies so make sure you bookmark this blog! Speaking of which, yes, your parents will and do have access to this blog as well.
So again, welcome to the 2016/2017 school year!
