Update - Humanities

Hey Folks,

It's been a pretty busy couple weeks! "Good on ya!" to those of you who submitted the first drafts of your essays last week -- it certainly helped to get the editing process moving.

By tonight, both classes will have read through each other's papers. Now, the original authors will decide whether or not they want to implement any suggested changes.

FINAL ESSAY DUE: Tuesday, December 17.

- Printed
- Font 12
- Double spacing
- References page (now that we've gone over this in class)

Please, also, type your name. The worst thing is spending time on a piece of writing, printing it off, and then scribbling your name in pen/pencil on the top! When I see this, I swear, I get a grey hair! It just all comes down to presentation + aesthetics of your work.

You also have either your illuminated manuscripts OR comic which will be due Tuesday, December 17 as well.


The countdown is on...

-Mrs. Lockyer

A Final Message Before The Break

Hello 8's! We both just wanted to send out a final message. Since next week is spring break, we won't be receiving or replying to messages until Sunday, March 29. We have all been working hard over the past few months, so we encourage you to step away and relax. As we mentioned in our post from Monday, this past week was still a school week - albeit from home - but you are now officially on spring break. Powerschool has been updated with this week's assignments that were collected. If anything is reflecting as "missing" or "incomplete," that means that we have not received it. This could be a technical issue, but we encourage you to double check (You all know about Mr. Badr's frustration with some vanishing google doc shares) We know there is a lot of uncertainty about what is going to happen after the break. We can't answer your questions regarding that. Please keep an eye on your emails from the CBE and/or TMC School for messages on any u...
