Dear Parent/s:
Welcome to the Honors Language Arts 10A classroom web page! I would like to take the time to introduce myself, as I will have your child in my classroom this semester. My name is Kristin Garwick, and this semester I am teaching 3 sections of this course, as well as two College Writing classes. I have been teaching since the fall of 1998, where I started at Huss Academy and eventually moved to the high school in the fall of 2002. I live in Three Rivers with my amazing partner, Shane, and my kids, Parker and Kinsleigh. Parker will be in fifth grade, and Kinsleigh will be in second.
Fall is my favorite season! Outside of school, we are busy with soccer and football in the fall. I love attending the kids activities and being their mom! Besides enjoying my time as a mom, I also enjoy jogging, reading, working in my yard, and giving love to my two cats, Kitty and Mama, and my rescue dog, Buddy.
Okay, so enough about me… in Honors LA10A, we will be focusing on: Collins Writing (persuasive MLA format), vocabulary, phrases and comma usage, and short story elements. Our readings will includeThe Glass Castle, A Raisin in the Sun, and The Great Gatsby. This is just a small portion of all of the things that your child will be studying in class. Please review the syllabus that was given to your child in class today. If at any time you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
I am excited about the upcoming school year and look forward to meeting with you at conferences, if not before. If you have any questions, suggestions, or concerns please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Kristin Garwick
