Last 8th Grade Blog Post of the Year!

Science: 2nd Hour discussed the eye and observed Mrs. Petersen demonstrate the dissection, they (and 1st hour) will dissect on Monday. 5th-7th hours dissected the eye!


Geometry: Finished the final exam and placed our order for Noodle & Company lunch on Monday :)


Humanities: Students checked 20.3, reflected on the year and shared current events in class. No homework.

RR Math: Turn in any missing homework by Monday.

RR ELA: Read. Logs are due Monday! No exceptions.


BHS Media Center: Thank you for allowing me to address your 8th graders today! Here's some additional info on Summer Reading at BHS that may prove helpful:
  • Students must read at least 1 book (honors students: 2 titles) from the list for their incoming grade.
  • All other pertinent information, incl. assignments, book trailers & more, is on the BHS LMC home page (http://tinyurl.com/bhslmcgr8t) in the Summer Reading Folder. (Direct BHS LMC Summer Reading folder link = http://tinyurl.com/bhslmc-summerreading )


Important update: Berkley High School is no longer endorsing the book HATE LIST on the 9th grade Summer Reading List in light of a recent situation at Anderson Middle School. The title appears on some earlier copies of the 2015 Summer Reading lists. If students choose to read the book, they do so without the official endorsement of Berkley High School. The book HATE LIST deals with the aftermath of a school shooting and has received many awards. The book will remain in the BHS LMC collection.
