Class of 2016!!

[plants]

+1 Owl Eyes was seriously the only likeable character for me haha probably has to do with his limited role in the novel 
Also welcome to the others joining Class of 2016's bandwagon, we're in for a bit of a bumpy ride but it should still be fun and worthwhile

I did the Great Gatsby in literature this year and LOVED IT. Such beautiful writing.
I loved the way I hated characters (TOM!!!!). I had a weird affinity for Daisy (in the way that you may still like a very, very flawed human being because of the truth and complexity in it). But I think it's mainly because I love her quote, "And I hope she'll be a fool — that's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool.”

Thinking about Gatsby makes me regret dropping Literature as soon as Unit 1 was over...

Oh well...

I did exactly the same thing.

Not sure how I feel about it.

Of course, and I do 

I did exactly the same thing.

At least I'm not the only one

This is such an awesome thread 
Anyone else doing spesh next year? And is EngLang the same as normal english? I could search it up but, yeeaaahhh

I started my year 12 classes yesterday Thursday; everything's going pretty sweet, I'm super happy with all my teachers and classes. My spesh class merged in with the other one so now there's 40 people in our room making noise which really bothers me (I'm a prude, yolo) but by the looks of it, we'll have downsized to 25-30 by 2016 so it'll probably be a bit more manageable.

Bruh... there's 6 people in my spesh class next year 😂😂😂

Yup I'm doing spesh!!

I'm already finding it a nightmare hahaha

Yep, it's going to be great. Tough, but great

Wow...lucky you. Mine only has 11, but we have a mixture of students from schools around the area to make up the class.

So far I think it's pretty manageable, but dear lord even though people told me I didn't expect to be using so much space every page

They're not the same, but I couldn't give you specifics. I've been told lang is the science of english. I think there's a thread here somewhere that discusses it though, I could try to dig it up if you want.

Okay it must be a 'special' bunch then 
I seem to like the small class idea. This year I had 25 students in both methods & GMA and boy oh boy was it tough. Couldn't get the teacher for more than a few mins each class

I know right, so MUCH SPACE
And sure you can dig it up for me. Thanks mighty!

I know right, so MUCH SPACE

What topic have you started with? My class is doing complex numbers first, and I haven't used that much space. Though it is kind of hard without the textbook....stupid new study design. So far the only course I can get ahead with is Further...

Some graphing of reciprocals, ellipses etc
My teacher gave us the whole first chapter and some extra stuff for what I like to call "fun"
Not too sure when we'll do complex number though because my real Spesh teacher was sick during orientation

Same, same. Mostly trig stuff. Probably all we'll be doing for the headstart period.

Here's the english / lang thing
