See you tomorrow,

Mrs. A.

Celebrate the EARTH!!

Hi Class,

As we saw from today's movie, "An Inconvenient Truth", we need to do whatever we can to help our EARTH heal. Turn off lights. Plant a tree. Ride a bike, when you can, and so on...

For homework tonight, be sure to finish up your reflections about today's movie, "An Inconvenient Truth". Then, there are just a few people who have some outstanding assignments due. Finally, don't forget that Wednesday is SPELLING DAY!!

See you tomorrow,

Mrs. A.

How Persuasive are YOU?

Hi Class,

Wow! It was great having Ms. Kash in yesterday to record our "Healthy Food" Advertisements. She told me they were well written and very persuasive! I can't wait to hear them!

Here's your homework update:

MartH - For those of you who are not quite finished your 3-D "Voyage to Mars" pictures, finish them up this weekend.

SCIENCE - Complete #1-5, "Forces and Machines: Communicate" on pages 9-11 in your ST6 book.

Have a good weekend!

See you Monday,

Mrs. A.

Are you keeping up with your work?

Hi Class,

We have a number of people in the APP Group. It would really be great to see some more join that group in preparation for next year. Be sure to ask questions, catch up from others, come in off the bus for a little extra help, etc... Keep learning how to help yourself. It's one of the most important lessons in life!

Here's your homework update:

ENGLISH - Keep working away at Spelling #21 for next Wednesday.

MATH - Finish up today's "Transformation" WORK.

SCIENCE - You could get a bit ahead and finish classifying your examples of motion into the four types of motion outlined in your Science book.

Any unfinished, unsigned work is still outstanding for a few people. YEARBOOKS are now 4 days late, unless you have a WORK OFF COUPON that you've negotiated with me.

Sincerely,

Mrs. A.

Shake! Shake! Shake!

Hi Class,

Well, we had our first COPS FOR CANCER MILK SHAKE DAY today, and for the most part it went well. There were a few order problems, but everyone managed to get a milkshake.

Here's your homework update:

ENGLISH - Next Wednesday is Spelling Day, but don't leave it till then, start now and do a bit each night.
