When are you guys gonna start your summer assignments (if you have any)? I’m thinking the end of this month since school starts August 24th.
My school requires two books and a project. I won’t start until next month. School in Sep then.
@Pikabobs, what books do you have to read?
My birthday was yesterday! I turned 15, haha. I also have Drivers Education next week, so I’m excited for that.
Geez. I feel like a fetus now. I’m still 13 :))
Haha. I started school one year late, so I should technically be a rising sophomore haha,
The school have a list of books which I can chose from @IrrationalPepsi . I read The Alchemist. Will read two more
Here is summer work for incoming freshmen at a large suburban public high school in Wisconsin.
Honors English 9: Read one fiction book, either The Secret Life of Bees or The Book Thief, then analyze for ten literary devices. Read one non-fiction book from a list of 15, then write a short paper about it.
Honors Integrated Geometry/Algebra II/Pre-Calc: 26 pages of review worksheets.
Hi, I’m new to this part of the forum teehee :p.
Anyways, we have no math summer assignments, but for English, it is to take notes on an article called ‘The Joy Of Reading and Writing: Superman and Me’ by Sherman Alexie, on the book ‘The Pain of Dying’ by Ernest Gaines, and a book chosen from this list they give you (I chose ‘A Tree Grows in Brooklyn’ by Betty Smith).
I have to read ‘The Education of Little Tree.’ It sounds hideous. Lol.
I found out u that we DO have summer assignments. Honors Algebra 2 is optional - I’m not planning to do it. However, English 9 is mandatory and we have to write an essay comparing two books from a certain list.
That sounds fun @Giovuhnni.
This summer has been pretty boring so far. What about for y’all?
Incoming Junior here. I thought I might join your discussion, and maybe give some advice if you want.
My summer has been going pretty well. It’s doing the intended purpose of summer, which is to unwind before you have to rewind yourself back up for school.
Have any questions? Let me know!
I have schedule pick-up on August 6th, so that’s something to wait for. Once Monday hits, my summer will be busy.
Well, Driver’s Ed was kinda sucky. Loads of notes, mean teacher, and a test tomorrow…and she didn’t finish what would be on the test. Fudge.
One more thing, do any of you wanna group chat on kik?
Aspiringgirl made one, do you want the name?
Sure @IrrationalPepsi
@IrrationalPepsi I feel for you about the Drivers Ed lol. My summer is pretty great-- I’m in India hence the super late postings. Day after I came back from vacation, however, I need to meet my counselor to discuss placements, because we JUST moved, so I’m super nervous about that :-S But orientation is like 3 days after, so yay!
Haha. I wanna visit another country, but I live with my dad and stepmom. They work at factories, but we actually manage to live comfortably. We aren’t rich, but we’re making it ;). My mom is a pharmacist, but she doesn’t manage her money well, and uses it all for style and bills. I honestly don’t know how she barely has any money left over but whatever. Plus, she is pretty selfish…so. I only see her every other weekend. Anyways.
@Giovuhnni what’s your kik name?
