I was in Mr. X's English Class in 09!: A post from Ashlee...

Heyya i’m Ashlee (Awesomeness) Selleck. I am in year 10 :D. It is a wicked ass class, we have fun and do awesome work! We are now doing a play on Dracula! It’s about Jonathon who has to stay at Draculas house, and he tries to eat him, but we stop him, the end :D. I have a pretty good part (Arthur) :P, The main charters are Daniel (Dracula). Matt (Jonathon) He isn’t very good though!! Our class is very noisy and we are pretty crazy at times! I don’t know how he can handle us! We have been reading the Twilight book also. Over all my favourite part of the class is doing the play! It’s hard when you have a class next door who are babies and can’t handle some NOISE!!! But Jayden takes care of them ;) Some people take this play way to seriously (Matthew Davis)(Jayden Hickey), they say I have anger issues, but they make me angry :D, they are so mean :( But over all this is my favourite class :D love Ash xx

I was Year 10 in 09

In Term 3 my Year 10s began to look at popular culture, fads, icons and celebrities of the last few decades. From Marilyn Monroe to Marilyn Manson, The Beatles to The Red Hot Chilli Peppers and roller disco rinks to hip hop street culture! We are also looking at song lyrics, dance moves and music videos and their place in our own culture.

In Term 4 we dove into some classic gothic fiction tales such as Dracula and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and began comparing them to contemporary novels such as Twilight.

I was Year 9 in 09

Up, up and away! In Term 3, my Year 9's began investigating some of the world's most beloved comic book heroes. Why isn't Super Girl and Bat Woman aren't as popular as their male equivalents? Are girls just as tough as boys? Can boy's be sensitive nurses too? Should there be an all female AFL team? We will continue to uncover these and other tired, old gender stereotypes.

In Term 4 we looked at Television genres and wrote about Australian soapies Home and Away and Packed to the Rafters. We are working on the assignment of creating our own television shows that will appeal to a teenage audience.
