Dear Ms. Coyne
Welcome to Sophomore English! This is going to be a busy year for Beth, and I will do
my part to keep you informed about our classroom activities. Each term you can expect
the following communications from me:
• Progress report
• Report card
• Monthly letter such as this one
You can expect that Beth will have a written assignment for English class every two
weeks. In addition, there will be an independent study project each term, which I expect
every student to complete and present in class. Students select a topic from a list that I
provide. They research the topic, write a 500-word report, and create some kind of visual
object to accompany the report. Topics range from book reports to the process of
publishing.
I find that Sophomore English is usually one of the most fun, educationally stimulating,
and enjoyable classes. I look forward to getting to know you and Beth throughout the
year. Please feel free to contact me with your questions and concerns.
Sincerely,
Roxana Munoz
English Teacher
