Welcome
Back to English Class!
Dear EHTHS Parents/Guardians and Students,
Say goodbye to the
scorching Summer heat and good riddance to sunburn and greenheads. It is my pleasure to welcome you back to the
cool and comfortable black and silver of EHTHS.
I am excited to see what surprises and blessings this school year will
deliver as we further our study of English.
In order to prepare you
for the upcoming school year in my classroom, I would like to illustrate my
philosophy that English is life. A classroom
based in that belief may encompass literature from all walks of life and
provide a base for its practical application within the students’ lives. Our class will discover and perfect reading
comprehension, drawing conclusions / making inferences, and writing skills that
will be transferable in whatever career path students choose, as well as build
memories and friendships that will last a lifetime.
Students will
experience multiple forms of representation as we dive into our realm of study
in English class. Utilizing current
events, popular culture, music, film, poetry, and a diverse set of literature
our class will truly be a vessel of lifelong learning. Exposure to such varied authors and forms of
expression will springboard each student’s understanding of their own learning
styles and develop creativity and establish credibility in his/her own
writing. My classroom goal is to
establish an efficient and effective learning community to appropriately
address relevant 21st century standards within our study over the
course of the year. Lessons will hinge
upon essential questions and enduring understandings and all writing
assignments will be graded using a holistic scoring rubric consistent with the
EHTHS English department and state testing standards.
Parents/Guardians, I thank you for your
interest in your student’s education and I look forward to working with you
throughout the course of the school year.
With continuous progress reports and flyers, I will keep you up to date
with our journey into the world of English.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact
me either by email (Mosetti@eht.k12.nj.us) or by phone at my extension at the
high school (609-653-0100 Ext. xxx).
Thank you,
Mr. Mosetti
