Registration for
Quarter 2 courses (November-January) begins today, Tuesday, October 11th. You
can register through the South Hill website.
https://moodle.vsb.bc.ca/moodle3/local/intake/Nov2022/start.php
You should have
received an email this morning from the school.
In order to
register, you need a recommendation from me. Today, we will talk about it; then
I will put your recommendation into a spreadsheet for the advisors.
Today, I will
give you an interim recommendation for which English class you should register
for in Quarter 2. This interim recommendation will be based on the quizzes and
tests you have done so far this term. Also, I have given you a spoken mark out
of 10 based on how much speaking you do in class. Plus there are a few points
for submitting HW.
REMINDER:
Quizzes are worth
about 25-30% of your mark.
Tests are worth
approximately 50-60% of your mark.
Spoken is worth
approximately 10-15% of your mark.
If you are passing this class well:
English Foundations 1 STAY IN EF1 OR MOVE UP
TO EF2
English Foundations 2 STAY IN EF2 OR MOVE UP
TO EF3
Speaking and Listening 1/2 – EXTRA CLASS, You
should be in EF1 or EF2 with another instructor.
EF- English
Foundations
The South Hill
English department strongly recommends that students who are marginally passing
(50-60%) not advance to the next level. Therefore, the minimum average required
to receive a recommendation to register early for the next level is 60%. This
is to prevent students who are not ready from registering in a class that may
be too high for them.
We want the
strongest students to have an opportunity to register first.
NOTE: 60% is the
reasonable cutoff point for early registration starting tomorrow.
However, the
final passmark for courses in BC is 50%. That is your final mark on the last
day.
You can move up
to the next level with 50%, but I don’t think that is strong enough. You have
to get better at your English.
IMPORTANT: The minimum
average for a recommendation to register early for the next level starting
tomorrow is 60%.
The final passmark is 50%.
We have four
weeks left in our course. You can change your mark significantly depending on
the quizzes and tests yet to come. We have many quizzes and tests yet to come
this term. Plus the in-class spoken mark.
In November I
will teach the following courses:
Period 1 (9:15-11:30) English 11
Period 2 (12-2:15) English
Foundations 4/5
This is my
schedule.
EF
1,2,3,4,5,6,7 --- English 11, English 12
There is no EF 8,9,10
