Happy Thanksgiving!
I hope you all have enjoyed a restful Thanksgiving Weekend with lots of family time.
ELA--I will be checking reading logs on Monday for 150 min. of reading as well as Agendas for signatures. The students had all week to work on their Scrapbook/Timeline/Autobiography project. The due date is Oct. 11 and I look forward to seeing their finished work. The students will have an opportunity to view their peers work as well through a gallery display and will be able to make comments on each others projects. It should be lots of fun. We will be starting a Short Story Anthology this week as well as work on some Creative Writing and descriptive writing. Four Reader Responses for October are due on Friday, Oct. 28.
Math--Gr. 8s have begun Ch. 2 on ratios and rates. The Gr. 7s will start Ch. 2 tomorrow. The Gr. 7s will also be bringing home their tests for signatures tomorrow.
Social Studies--We will be completing Ch.1 this week. We have been discussing Oral, Visual and Social history as well as Archaeology and Archaeologists. We will conclude by talking about different societies.
Religion--We will be looking at the Apostles Creed this week.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns via email or call the school.

ELA--I will be checking reading logs on Monday for 150 min. of reading as well as Agendas for signatures. The students have had some time to work on their Scrapbook/Timeline/Autobiography project. Please help your student by finding pictures of them to go with each year of their life. They can be digital or we can photocopy/print them in color at the school. I will be giving the students more time this week to complete this project. The due date is Oct. 7 (Friday). Four Reader Responses for October are due on Friday, Oct. 28.
