Tuesday, December 2

Please check out the link below to see a video of our Paideia Seminar.  Thank you to Cody Deegan for recording and editing!  This takes so much time and we are very grateful.  The students did a fabulous job, and I am looking forward to doing this again before the end of the school year.

In projects, we are working on WW1 and learning about America's involvement.  Next week we will focus on our final project.  We may be in need of some art supplies.  I have a lot of stuff left from the map project and will keep you posted.

8th Grade Reading:
Students are reading The Outsiders.  They are working on pulling details about each character, as well as finding new vocabulary words to use in writing.  We will move into narrative elements of the story later this week.

7th Grade Reading:
Students are working on building reading and writing stamina through Daily 5, and are using their individual CAFE strategy to improve their reading.

Writing:
We will continue to express and reflect through our class "Twitter" page, and will move into one more reflective writing assignment to complete before the holiday break.

**Please consider donating any amount of money to the Student Council fundraising effort.  All monies will go to the Fallon Youth Club.
