Williams Parkway Senior Public School
In addition to having a grade 6 homeroom class, I teach Media, Language Arts and Social Studies at the grade 6 and grade 7 levels. This blog contains information for students who have me as a teacher in one or more of these classes. Students are encouraged to maintain an agenda as their primary organizational tool. Students and parents are invited to use this blog as an additional resource to stay informed about projects and events at school that specifically pertain to the classes I teach.
Please scroll down the page and scan the title of posts to find information relevant to yourself.
Any scanned images can be enlarged by clicking on them. They can then be downloaded and printed if necessary.
Please let me know about aspects of this blog that you find helpful and ways in which it could be improved. I can be contacted by phone at the school telephone number.
Yours sincerely,
Mr. Banerjee
