I found it exciting to integrate these two courses but time has been a huge issue - neither course is getting the full benefit time wise even though I believe in quality not quantity - too difficult to justifiably meet all the curricular competencies for both courses in only one block...should have two blocks to do this like integrated in grades 8 and 9 still have a block dedicated to each of the courses that are being integrated.

Some suggestions to consider:
- English 10 to attend Bard in Sept. 2019 ($3,000.00)
- perhaps the $7, 000 balance should be divided into grade course use and incidentals plus department meetings/get togethers? bearing in mind the grade 10 play cost
- Perhaps $2,000.00 for a grade 11 play?
-Perhaps $800 each grade (integrated, 10, 11, 12) for class supplies/guest speakers...= $2, 400.00
- $1, 000.00 slush fund (things come up along the way over and above the allocated budget)
-$1, 600.00 = department meeting breakfasts, lunch at Writer's Festival/year end dinner/play etc. (may need a little more here!)

I'd like to suggest a hub for all digitals texts being used. One of my difficulties this year was trying to discover texts (e.g. short stories) for use in the classroom. Being able to peruse through a central folder with texts being used by colleagues already in .pdf format would be helpful.

I think we should invite Natalie Castro to the show because she is helping with the play next year.

I would love to see Drama 8/English 10 collaborate with some units. I struggle with finding refreshing scripts for script work in class and it would be cool if the English 10 class wrote scripts for the Drama 10 class to perform. We could even invite classes to watch them or showcase them some how.

Creative Writing has been a hard course to teach due to the international students not joining in conversation and trying to think outside the box.

This is not their fault as they naturally struggle with English and to ask them to be creative and write creatively is a very difficult task for them to do.

I think the course could improve if we could limit the amount of international students in the class as currently there are 9 international students and 6 non-international students.

I would love to see a bit of time dedicated to networking with each other according to subjects/grades taught. However, ultimately, I think I'd be grateful to have a large chunk of time to work on my planning and fill out the "reflection" pieces of my plans.

I am wondering if there will be any money available for furniture costs? Justine and I would love to add a reading corner in 203 (if I am using that room next year) -- perhaps a few comfy chairs, a small table, and a lamp.
