This is a space for adult students of grade 10, 11 and 12 English Language Arts to communicate about what and how they are learning, both in and out of class.

New School (Part 1) My first impression of this school has been a very positive one. It was hard for me to get back to school after having my second child. This is my first time at this school and coming back to school in about 6 years. I was very anxious as well about coming to a new school, meeting new people, new teachers, new environment and the demands of having two children at home. I very quickly realized though that the teachers are amazing and want you to succeed and go out of their way to make that happen for you as long as your fully committed as well. The teachers are very understanding and accommodating if you do need to miss a class, by giving you the work you need or giving you more time to complete the assignments when you do come to class. The classroom is a very positive environment you can feel that when you walk in. All the classmates are friendly and welcoming , and you can tell that everyone is determined to do well in this class. English is honestly my favourite subject by far, and everything we are doing right now I love. Writing is one of my passions and I loved writing my autobiography and doing the short story question answers.

(Part 2) To ensure that I succeed this year I am staying focused and looking at the bigger picture, reminding myself that I am doing this because I want to be a the best role model for my children and that my goal is to get into nursing school but first I need to graduate high school in order to do that. I am making sure that I finish all of my assignments and that I show up to as many classes as I can. I am also just giving one hundred percent of my effort into school now, because I do realize it is one of the most important things you will do in life.
