WARNING: FUN ahead!
HI NEW 7TH GRADERS!!
Here's a guide to Language Arts Honors: 7th grade!
  1. FUN The first thing you have to remember is that this is a fun class! Mrs. Robins will try not to do anything that you don't want to do, but she still has you learn something.                                                    
  2. NEWSPAPER Doing the newspaper is SOOOOOOO much fun! I really enjoyed it, but it's also a lot of work, depending on what page you have. We trust you (even though we don't know you yet...) We want it to be awesome next year too! πŸ“°                                                                                 
  3. BLOG POST/CONTEST Please, oh please do not forget about the blog post or contest. You have to have 1 each month. If you forget about it, (or procrastinate) you will see your grade start to go down. I suggest doing it early. That's what really helped me.                                                  
  4. READ If you don't like to read, your're in trouble. Reading in here is not as demanding as 6th grade, but you still have to read a book every 10 days. It's pretty easy if your a fast reader, but if you're not, read smaller books. Mrs. Robins will help you, just ask her.  πŸ“–πŸ“š                                             
  5. PROCRASTINATION You will probably see this on just about every blogpost. If you procrastinate/"forget" to turn something in, it is one of the leading causes of entering into a normal Language Arts class. (Well as normal as you can get. Mrs. Robins makes it super fun and strange sometimes. BEWARE the yoga poses!)                                                                                     
  6. WORK TOGETHER It's okay if you like working  alone, but it's WAY better to work with others in your class. Make sure you collect ALL ideas. I'm glad I did. Just warning you! Also you get to make up awesome names for your team. (Go Robin Eggs!)                                                               
  7. HELP Ask for help. Mrs. Robins will help you. Don't be afraid. She won't bring you down.         
  8. TURN OFF YOUR PHONE! TURN YOUR PHONE ONIf your phone rings in class... Mrs. Robins will pick it up! It's hilarious, but probably not to you.                                                                  
  9. BE FUNNY This might seem like a weird one, but Mrs. Robins is always up for a good joke. (One time I put my apple "phone" in the phone slot... 🍎She wanted to post it!) Just don't go too far. 😐                                                                                                                 
  10. WRITE Please know how to write because we write a lot in this class, even for tests! For the blog posts she usually haves you write a fun prompt, but still, learn how to write! You'll get good grades and it's basically the key to this class... πŸ”‘

  1. I love how you used different colors and emojis, that was a nice touch :)) Maybe just do a colon ( : ) or a period after you introduce your tip so that we know it's not part of the sentence.. like WRITE: or something like that. Other than that, it was great!
