Projects:
Tomorrow we will be conducting different science experiments in the middle school classrooms. Each experiment will be weather -related. This should be a lot of fun and very exciting!
8th Grade Reading:
Today we watched most of the movie The Outsiders, and will finish it tomorrow. Also, students will finish preparing for their seminar, which is scheduled for this Thursday. I'm looking forward to listening to them discuss the book. Next week we will start the book To Kill a Mockinbird, by Harper Lee. This is one of my all time favorite novels, and I can't wait to share it with the students.
7th Grade Reading:
Flocabulary lesson today, and the kids rocked the discussion! The packet is due at the end of the week. We will start reading The Maze Runner next week. I'm looking forward to teaching this book.
Writing:
Students are still writing argumentative essays. They are working on planning, and should be ready to start their introductions tomorrow. Each student has chosen a topic that he or she is passionate about, and I'm looking forward to hearing their arguments.
Once again, we are in need of some gift cards for our auction. Thank you so much to those families who have donated to our fun. The students love our auctions. They work hard to earn "money," and love trying to be the highest bidder for our items.
