2. Something that you found interesting when you learnt it in class

The second part of your task is that you will need to comment on 3 different comments providing an answer to their question.

Homework due Thursday 6th June

Hey everyone,
Just a reminder that your homework for the rest of the term will now be due on Thursdays for the rest of the semester. So for this week you will need to pick one of the prompts from the page on the right hand side and that will be your piece for this week. You will have to write a piece addressing each of those prompts before the end of the term. So pick the one you feel comfortable addressing this week but be aware that you will not be able to avoid the one you don't like.

Good luck!

Welcome

Welcome everyone to 2013 On The Waterfront.

As you can see I have esablished a blog that will contain most of the information that you will need to complete for this unit. On the side there are study guides, assignments that will need to be completed this unit and suggestions for additional reading.

At several points throughout the unit all of you will be expected to write comments and posts that you will all get to see and contribute to. This is a fantastic opportunity for you all to learn from each other as well as learning for the students from last year too. But this only works as well as you all make it.

So good luck and watched out for those canarys.

Thank You

I just wanted to say a very quick thank you to you all. I don't think I can truly explain all the things that I have gained from knowing you all and all the fascinating things I have learnt about you all and myself. I could not wish you enough luck for what you all deserve but I will try my hardest. I wish you all the best for the exam and hopefully they exam questions will be the same as those for the SACs throughout the year so it is a little easier for you all. Please call in after the exam and tell me how you went (if I can't get there due to having a class). Once again, thank you; for everything.
Love you all
Nikki
