Due MONDAY AUGUST 15TH!!!





Dear New Student,

I am pleased to have you in my class!  In order to get to know you a little better, I would like for you to complete this first assignment.  It is due next Monday, but you may turn it in earlier.  You are to write a letter to me.  In the letter, you are to include the following information:


·         Something fun you did this summer
·         Your likes and dislikes
·         Your expectations and goals for ELA this year
·         Where and when you were born
·         Overview of your family
·         Three adjectives you would use to describe yourself
·         Where you plan on attending high school
·         Anything else interesting you’d like to share with me


Do not simply answer the questions like a list.  Be creative and descriptive!

Leave your letter as a comment on this post.  Be sure to include your first name, last initial, and your class period.


Looking forward to hearing from you,

                                                                                                          
Ms. Kimbrough
