Happy New Year!
We were a little wound up today due to reuniting with old friends and freezing for a change. We made it outside and successfully through all classes.
We do have a bit of work to finish up this week in LA and SS. Here it is.
RAFT - should be done by end of class tomorrow. Will be assessed for progress reports (FRIDAY!)
Literary Essay on your book choice - typed draft finished by end of class tomorrow or homework. This will be finished by end of class Wednesday
Reading record - students should have finished two books in December.
It seems ridiculously soon, but we were just told that progress reports will go home this Friday. We will let everyone know if work is complete and up to standard. These will come home with students.
We started to look for our National History Day topics today in the library. Topic choice is due Friday. The theme is Exploration, Encounter and Exchange in History. Mrs. Babbitt helped us out by introducing several books and a list of topics from the NHD website. See the website http://nhd.org/
Here is the sample topic list
Homework:
Math: Skill sheet (due Thursday?)
SS: Finish RAFT - use the check sheet and rubric
start your NHD topic looking/reading if you are done
Read for 20-30 minutes (novel of your choice)
Update your reading record
