Informal Writing Slideshow

Here is a link to the first Lesson:

Informal Writing Slideshow

Welcome Grade 10 Class of September 2012


Welcome to our classroom, online and off.

I hope you will enjoy this course. We have lots in store: We'll be reading Romeo and Juliet and Farenheit 451. We also have a field trip arranged to see Romeo and Juliet live in Toronto.

I also want to get you writing creatively. We'll cover Poetry and informal wrting as well as formal literary essay writing.

In this section of the course I want you to learn the answer to questions like these:

What's the difference between formal and informal writing?


What are the different ways in which I can organize my writing to be an effective communicator?


How can I be persuasive and influential in my writing?
