I hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas holiday with time spent with family and friends. We are all trying to get back into a routine at school. Hopefully this is happening at home as well.
ELA--I will be checking reading logs on Monday for 150 min. of reading as well as Agendas for signatures. We have begun doing our spelling units again. The students learned about writing Persuasive Paragraphs this week. They will be beginning a class novel on Monday, Searching for David's Heart.
Math--Gr. 8s started Ch. 5 on Surface Area and have been creating nets for 3-D objects. The Gr. 7s started Ch. 5 on Probability.
Social Studies--Students continued with their unit on Egypt with pyramid building and researching some different pyramids. They will be continuing next week with hieroglyphics, terminology, and characteristics of the culture.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns via email or call the school.
