A Note About Google Classroom

Hello!  Just a note to say that with the advent of Google Classroom, we have moved our class' on-line focus to that forum.  Google Classroom allows teachers to post announcements and assignments, and students can submit homework directly to the site.  One of the only drawbacks, however, is that it has to be accessed using your child's access code.  If you are interested in seeing what we are up to in English class, please ask your child to share his or her class code with you.

We may still use this blog for other class-related purposes, but it will not be our primary site.

Thank you!
