Summer Reading Lists and Tasks were forwarded to Pre-AP students using two methods and at different times:
Grade 9 - ENG1DP - Mrs. Efpatridis
Students were mailed reading lists and reading/writing tasks the 3rd week of July based on the class list provided by the Guidance Dept. on June 28, 2014. Mrs. Efpatridis randomly called 2 students to confirm receipt of the packages that were mailed from Guelph.
If a student did not receive a package in the mail or was added to the course after the class list for the course was generated, he/she can access the tasks below:
I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience if a student has not received a package. The Summer Reading Program for Pre-AP students was introduced this year. The merits of reading during the summer are explained in the first document above. During this inaugural process, there may be some challenges that we face together. Student feedback is appreciated, and students can share their experiences with me, the classroom teacher, on September 2.
If students did not receive a package or were just added to the course, they can do their best to complete the tasks based on a novel selection from the list provided. During the first week, I will be teaching several lessons, and then to demonstrate student understanding, I will ask students to follow up by completing some writing tasks, creative components, and collaborative discussions based on the summer reading. The tasks will be staggered over 2 weeks. Thus, students still have about 3.5 weeks to complete the reading to be prepared for class. Good Luck and God Bless!
Grade 10 - ENG2DP - Mrs. Cole
Students were mailed reading lists and reading/writing tasks on June 25 based on the class list generated May 16, 2014. If a student did not receive a package in the mail or was added to the course after the class list for the course was generated, he/she can access the tasks below:
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience if students have not received a package. The Summer Reading Program for Pre-AP students was introduced this year, and there may be some challenges that we face together while getting it underway. Student feedback is appreciated, and students can share their experiences with their classroom teacher on September 2.
If a student did not receive a package or was just added to the course, just do the best to complete the tasks. During the first week, the teacher will explain what tasks will be completed and assessed based on the summer reading. The tasks will be staggered over 3 weeks. Thus, students still have about 4.5 weeks to complete their reading to be prepared for class. Good Luck and God Bless!
Grade 11 - ENG3UP - Mrs. Efpatridis and Mrs. Cole
Reading lists and reading/writing tasks were hand delivered to students in ENG2DP between June 18-25 by their current grade 10 English teacher.
If for some reason students did not receive a package or were just added to the course, they can access the tasks below:
The Canadian Forces Co-op is a Co-operative Education Program whereby students can earn secondary school credits by training with a Canadian Forces Army. The aim of the military co-op is to introduce young Canadians to career opportunities in the Army Reserve.
