Hello all! After a week filled with testing, we began to get some work done. At this point, students have received a quote by John Donne in class. Students have been instructed to memorize the quote. Recitations of the quote begin October 19th for "B" block and October 20th for "A" block. These dates should be noted in your child's agenda. We have also begun to analyze the meaning of the quote and discuss why the quote represents our theme for the year. We also set-up Language Arts/Social Studies binders this week, so students should be well on their way towards an organized year. In the notes section of student binders, students should have two guided Cornell note sheets. These notes accompanied a powerpoint presentation given in class.
MAP testing will continue for us on 9/28 & 9/29, so don't expect classwork until Wednesday of next week. Students should still be completing AR reading at home and filling in their AR logs. Expect a new blog post by 9/30!
