Not sure who won the contest but it was a girl in Grade 7. We miss you too. You're allowed to "eat" gum in class...how horrible of your teacher to make you eat gum! There is a old-wives tale that says if you swallow gum, it'll stay inside you for 7 years. Perhaps you could just chew the gum. hehehe
Nasif, Yeshel, Deleep, Razmo and you have all left the class. We have a very small class..only 13 students. Maham is leaving for an extended vacation next week.
Your grammar needs some serious attention. Did I not teach you anything in English?

Essay

The essay is due a week Friday. The subject is Haiti. For those of you who were at school on Tuesday, I think the theme is very clear. We discussed a possible thesis. I can provide you with the videos we watched if you were absent. It is really important to attend school every day. I realize that you may be unable to attend due to sports events or illnesses, but some of you must make a better effort to attend school on an everyday basis to ensure you don't miss valuable instructional time.

homework

Gather more information on Haiti for your essay.

Remember to bring your science project work to class on Wednesday so you can edit/work on or complete the project.
