Spanish I: Study for vocab quiz on 1.2 on Monday, Oct 22nd. Words are on my blog and have been passed out.
ELA - students were given time to AR reading and quizzes, this is the last week before we start our class novel The Giver by Lois Lowry, so it is highly suggested that students get their 2 novels for this marking period completed and tested by the end of this week. We started our Science Fiction Unit by reading from our class Anthology and taking notes on the vocabulary words for this week. We will be reading two Science Fiction short stories and will be tested on the words and stories during our Friday quiz. If absent students may "check out" the anthology to catch up. Progress Reports were handed out today - as we do not send home official progress reports I thought it may be helpful to parents to see how their student is fairing and how much homework can help or hinder a student's grades. Remember MEAP tomorrow and Wednesday, so please be sure your student gets lots of sleep and eats a healthy breakfast. Homework: READ! Get progress reports signed...return tomorrow.
Humanities: Students checked chapter 2 assessment and shared current events in class. No homework.
