August 30, 2013: Classwork, Homework & Notificaitons

August 30, 2013:  Language Arts:

Classes were shorter today due to a wonderful assembly put on by our leadership team.  For this reason, students had more time to work on pages 4 & 5 Simple Solutions workbook.  I did collect final draft from essay.  Students that were late will lose 2 points out of 15.

• Students took a practice spelling test today and have to write each one they got wrong 5 times each for homework, refer to page 201 PB for correctly spelled words. 
• Students were introduced to vocabulary words for the next week.  The homework for the vocabulary graphic organizer will be due on Wednesday, since we did not have time to cover all the words.

Thank you to all the parents for completing all the forms.  Sixth grade had a 100%.

Thank you,
