Thanksgiving Break (11/20 - 11/29)

Reminder that students do not have school this Friday (11/20)
Progress reports will be mailed after Thanksgiving.  Everyone should be receiving it in the mail after the break.
Mini-Term begins the day we get back from break (11/30)

Exhibitions

Today the 7th grade gave their Art Exhibitions.  Though I only had the opportunity to watch three of the students (Beca, Juan and Devin who by the way did a wonderful job) I have heard from all the advisors that everyone did remarkably.  They should be very proud of their work.

End of Fall Term

I cannot believe it is already the end of the Fall Term.  Just 6 more school days until Thanksgiving Break (Don't forget, students do not have school on Friday Nov. 20).  However we still have plenty to do.  Besides the projects (Timeline for Social Studies) and Exhibitions (Art) that are due next week, students also need to turn in all back work/corrected work for Music by the latest, Monday Nov. 16th.  Also students will have have a chance to choose their elective for the upcoming Mini-Term.  Information for these classes will be posted/sent home soon so parents can see the choices the students have and help them select the electives that would best suit them.

As always, the homework is posted on the right side of this blog.  Please email me if I forget to update.

World War II Timeline

Due Date: Thursday, November 19

Description: Create a timeline that shows the major events of World War II.  Keep in mind that many of these events will be mentioned in class and written in class notes.  If you create a neat and simple timeline that includes all the major events covered in class and also craft it well, you will receive a 3 as a grade.  If the timeline is crafted in some extraordinary way, the grade will be higher (assuming it is handed in on time).

Social Studies Quiz

Tomorrow the Middle School will have a quiz in Social Studies.  It will be multiple choice and will cover the key figures and terms we have been studying in class.
