Thursday, October 9

Science: Today students used their data to write the data analysis and conclusions portions of their lab. Tomorrow we will wrap up with the critique/reflection and students will begin writing their rough drafts, which we will continue on Monday. Students will have access to laptops in class tomorrow and Monday to type, so they should bring flash-drives if necessary to save their work. Students may also bring in their own technology for typing up their labs. This lab is a 50 point summative assessment!

Thursday, October 16: Final draft of lab due

ELA - Students continued their studies of Dystopian Societies in Science Fiction with Reader's Workshop Day 4. We discussed the new events in Jonas' life and decided what should be added to his life map. I also discussed reading quizzes with students. Many students have not been keeping up on quizzes and are in jeopardy of failing that portion of the class. Please discuss this with your student as all know how many quizzes they need to take to complete this Summative Assessment. Homework: Journal entry #1.32 Read Chapters 9-11
