Our Road Trip Together
Welcome to 8th Grade Language Arts! Our travels this year will be valuable and interesting! Here to support and challenge you along the way, I am very happy to be your guide. I want to help you discover books you'll love, communicate your coolest ideas, and create positive connections with others. You'll choose some paths on your own, finding what sparks you. Other paths we'll travel together, sharing the experience. Through exploring language arts, we’ll come to know more about ourselves, each other, and the world around us. Awesome destinations!
With school starting in just a few weeks, what can you do to be ready to roll?
I can't wait to meet you at Open House!

With school starting in just a few weeks, what can you do to be ready to roll?
- READ what you enjoy most: on the beach, under a tree, with a flashlight in your bed -- at least a little each day.
- CHECK OUT the "Start-Up Materials List" and shop for bargain items early.
- GET PSYCHED up: think about what you like most about school (even if you wish summer could last forever) and dwell in those good thoughts once in awhile as school gets closer.
- KEEP making the most of summer -- enjoy your family, friends, activities, pets, water, music, downtime, and sunshine. Keep moving, exploring, inventing, helping, wondering, and connecting.
