Welcome to English 8. I am super excited to meet all of you and learn from you this year. I have been working hard all summer attending conferences, reading books, blogs, and educational links, picking all the brains of my twitter peeps and colleaugues at LPHS to help me become the best teacher I can be. You can be assured I am going to mess up sometimes but I know that is because we are going to take some risks in our learning and will learn something from each and every mess up. I can't wait to jump in!
Please complete this survey in order to provide me with a little info about you.

Friday 6/6
Today we will take the STAR test.
Next you will go to the class blog and answer the questions posed for you there. Each partner is responsible for responding. The responses need to be thorough not just yes or no responses but rather ones that include much detail.
Next, you should all answer the reflection blog post. Be honest and provide as much detail as you can. This will be important information that you will need next week. The more thorough you are now, the easier your job next week is!
Responses should be completed in class today but if you need more time, I will begin grading them on Monday night so they must be complete by then (BOTH responses)
