It's finally feeling like Fall outside!
Here we are at another week.
Math: We will be finishing up our unit with percents. It's tricky stuff. Parents, if you can check on your students each night and make sure they've tried their very hardest on their homework before coming to school. Struggling through these problems is usually the most helpful thing for students.
Science: Moon Phases with Miss Cook
Reading: We started Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli this week. We will be enjoying his and working on our own creative figurative language.
Writing: We are working on an argumentative paper this week. Should Cheerleading Be Considered A Sport? Students are reading opposing articles, choosing which side they'd like to argue and then backing their claim up with evidence from the texts.
Social Studies: We will be building ROME this week! Students will be in groups and should get their assignments today or tomorrow. I have materials here for them, but any materials brought from home to help build are welcome.
The term ends THIS FRIDAY. I will be submitting grades Thursday night and cannot be changed after that. If your student has missing assignments (they will know if they do, or you can look on Skyward), the MUST be in by Thursday at 3:30.
I will be sending home some extra credit assignments with students who have all their work turned in that would like to boost their grades a little bit. This is all also due by Thursday at 3:30.
As always, students can come in before and after school for help. I'm always here. :)
Let me know if you have any questions!
