Senior English is a twelfth grade level language arts class. We focus on World Literature in this course. This class is primarily project-based, giving students many different opportunities to demonstrate what they have learned. I do not give quizzes and tests in this course, and homework normally consists of either make-up work from absences or completing assignments from class that students legitimately need more time to complete.

Welcome to Senior English! Class supplies are due on Friday, January 26, 2007. You must show me your supplies in class, and you will receive 15 points for doing so.
Also, don't forget that you must have your planner with you and you must be wearing your ID every day! I will check these daily for class points, beginning on 1/23/07, so don't forget them! Temporary IDs do not count for points!
I'm really looking forward to this semester; I know it's going to be great!
