Projects: Students will finish a scrapbook on their MVP Element of the year, or their baby element (their choice). They are working in groups to complete this and we are learning a lot about the Period Table of the Elements.
8th Grade Reading: Flocabulary....We watch the "Week in Rap" and discussed current events from the last week. I love the discussions that occur with this group! Homework for "Week in Rap" is due Thursday.
7th Grade Reading: Flocabulary...Homework for "Week in Rap" is due Thursday. Students are really enjoying learning about current events, and they really form intelligent opinions about what is happening in our world.
Writing: Students are still trying to finish Colonial America essays. Gentle reminders to follow the rubric are always helpful both at school and on the home front. :) We will focus on the root word "Aster" this week and hope to expand our vocabulary with words that contain that root.
**If students are assigned IXL for homework, please help me remind them that they MUST do 20 minutes minimum to get full credit. Any less will result in them going to study hall to do 20 minutes there. I know they would all rather do it at home and enjoy a nice, long lunch with their friends the next day.
**Still in need of auction items! We will have our next auction next Thursday, September 24th.
