This Test is to be submitted to me no later than Friday July 15th at 12pm.

If I have not received your test by then you will get a 0 for a mark, unless you have made previous arrangements with me.

As I will be correcting the test tomorrow (Friday) in-class, those students who have not shared their test with me and show up to class will be asked to leave to complete their test.

Thank you and GOOD LUCK!!

Tuesday July 12th:

Hi Everyone :)

Homework tonight: Work on your unit 8 essays and share them with me. The more you can get done ahead of time and corrected the better!

If you are new to the class, you should be reviewing the unit: especially grammar and vocabulary.

Due Dates:IMPORTANT!!

Unit 8 essays are due on Thursday, July 14th any time during the day. Every day you submit your essay late, I will deduct 5% from your mark.

If you are new to the class (meaning you joined the class this week) you are NOT EXPECTED to write the unit 8 essay.

If you do not submit your unit 8 essay before the weekend is over, I will not accept it and you will get 0 as a mark.

TEST: I will be giving students the take-home exam on unit 8 on Thursday, July 14th. It is due on Friday, July 15th.

I will post the link that allows you to open the test and complete it on this blog, under a post I will create on Thursday entitled UNIT 8 TEST.

Any questions? Ask me :) I am here to help! See you tomorrow :D
