Thursday, December 4

Please consider donating a $5 gift card to our class auction. We have auctioned off almost all of them, and the kids love bidding on these!

Projects:
Students will  start working on their final product for our WWI project.  They will choose an alliance, an example of propaganda, one major event, and one example of Militarism, Nationalism, or Imperialism to display.

8th Grade Reading:
Continuing with The Outsiders, and the students are really enjoying the book.  Today, they decided if they identify more with Greasers or Socs.

7th Grade Reading:
Students are working on building reading and writing stamina through CAFE and Daily 5 activities.  Please make sure your child is reading 20 minutes per night at home every night.

Writing:
We are all enjoying our class "Twitter" page that we add to on our Chromebooks (no, it's not online and part of the social media world).  I'm enjoying watching the kids express and reflect as they "Tweet" what's on their mind.

Permission slips for our trip to the movie theater on Dec. 17 were sent home today.  Please sign and return ASAP.

Please remember our Student Council fundraiser.  We are raising money to donate to the Fallon Youth Club.  Anything counts!
