Welcome to Mrs. Watson's Language Arts, Team 7C. I hope you all had a fantastic and restful summer vacation.
Let's plan to have a very productive year that will be filled with fun and hard work. Before the end of the week, you will be given your Language Arts syllabus outline and classroom procedures. You will be given enough time to read with your parents, express concerns, sign and return.
During the first week we will focus on "house Keeping" matters that will lay the foundation for a successfull year.
Below is a simple outline of the daily activities for this week.
See you!
