Secondly, I would like you to plan your final book talk and how you want to submit this piece for me to assess. You will need to either send me a video or schedule a time to come into class and give your book talk to me in the final two weeks of classes. Another option would be either through TEAMS or over the phone, and you can give me some notice so that I can arrange a time for this option.
As we are headed into the final two weeks of classes, all remaining assignments need to be submitted on CANVAS. If you need in class support, you are able to come into school at scheduled times. Please let me know if this option works best for you and I will add you to the list or if you need additional support on line.
Finally, I do want to add how proud I am of all of you to have done so well in these circumstances. I know that it has been frustrating but the resilience that I’ve seen from you has been inspiring.

This semester, CAPSTONE is part of our class and students will need to complete and present their project before the end of the semester. We will be working through the planning stages at the beginning of the term, following progress throughout the semester and finally presenting projects at the end. Some aspects of the project- the project plan and reflection- will be included in your grade 12 mark.
