Dear ELA Community,
We’re starting a new checklist this week. It’s been uploaded to the checklist page on this blog. I’ll have a copy for everyone, but if you lose yours, you can find and print one here.
During the next two weeks, we have some important things to remember:
December 8th, 2017: Final Job Shadow Report is due for all 7 th & 8th-grade students.
December 12th & 13th, 2017: Final Forces of Culture Research Paper is due for all 9th-grade students.
December 19th, 2017: International Festival- all 9th-grade students will be presenting their research project findings.
New Book Club: We are also starting an after-school book club this week. Our first meeting will be on Thursday, December 7th, from 3:15 to 4:00, with meetings occurring each Thursday until further notice. Our first book will be To Kill a Mocking Bird. As a group, we’ll read a few chapters each week and discuss our thoughts and feelings during our weekly meetings. Everyone is invited to join us, but we ask that you commit to attending the weekly meetings so you can keep up with the reading and discussion.
If you have questions about anything ELA related or the information in this post, please don’t hesitate to drop by or send me an email.
Have a great week,
Ms. Shilo (and Ms. Wendy too!)
