Last Blog for Year 2009

Well the year has come to an end. Please post your favorite assignment we did in class this year. Explain why it was your favorite. It could be a book, short story, writing assignment, or something we did in class.

I look forward to reading your responses. Don't worry, it only has to be a paragraph or longer.

Thanks and it was a pleasure working with you this year. Good luck in high school.

Ms. Ehid
