Hello class,
I sincerely hope that we have another class together next week. However, if not, thank you for a wonderful semester. I have enjoyed working with you and hope that I will have you as students again in grade 11 and/or 12.
Just a reminder that your provincial exam in on June 24th at 9:00 a.m. It would be wise to review the following:
- your notes on literary and poetic terms
- the comprehensive list of terms for English 10
- your notes on how to write an effective essay
- your notes on how to write an effective paragraph
- your notes on how to integrate quotations smoothly
- the feedback I have given you on all written assignments - they should be saved in your email account. Look for errors that you commonly made and remember to avoid them on the exam.
- list of persuasive words to use when writing
- technical Tuesday notes
Remember to bring the right supplies: 2 pens, 2 pencils, a good eraser, and a highlighter.
Dress in layers just in case it's too hot or too cold.
If you are in the big gym writing the paper exam, you may bring a small amount of candy and water in a clear water bottle. If you are writing an e-exam, you are not permitted to have food or drink (sorry).
Take your time on the exam. Use powerful, sophisticated language.
I will be thinking of you all while you are writing it and will be cheering you on.
All the best,
Ms. Tong
