Good evening ladies & gentlemen,

I would like to encourage you all to tell your parents about the "Walk to School Challenge" that you will be leading over the course of the next month.  With this comes a lot of responsibility which I know you will all handle very well.


Homework:

Literacy - Please complete the questions for your Public Service Announcement on the blank "Media Triangle".  (Due tomorrow)

Literacy - Please make sure that you look at your essays and make sure that you fix any of the following:

2.  Take out symbols such as :)  or   ;)

3.  Make sure that your essay is not "centered".  All the lines should start at the same point on the left side of the page (unless you have indented at the beginning of a new paragraph).
