Greetings Parents:
- We are starting the 2nd semester. That means we
have a new gradebook; the slate is clean. It's time to set some
new goals to get homework turned in on time, improve the quality
of our homework, apply what we've learned, and do our personal
best!
- Endangered Animal Projects: Students
will be bringing their animal project notebooks and information
resources to and from school each day these next few weeks so they
can put their notes into the appropriate section of the notebook
(habitat info goes in the habitat section; why it's endangered
goes in the section on why it's endangered.) Focus on the notes
related to what it looks like and its special features that help
it survive (adaptations) this week, then go to habitat notes. We're
going to start writing our introductory paragraph this week. So,
if you want to help, then help them get those notes into their
notebook, and let them write the report at school.
- WriteSite - Personal Narrative :
More than a handful of students need to complete their final drafts
of their personal narrative in WriteSite.
They will have very little time at this point to complete this
in class. If you want them to stay after school & finish it, I'll
be available this Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday for an hour
after school. I sent an email with instructions how to complete
this at home for those who have an internet connected computer
available. You do not need to print it.
