Thank you to all those who have already signed up on REMIND! I’ve started using it and think it will be very effective as time goes on. For today, I will simply put as much as I can here.
Please sign-up soon for Parent-Student (Teacher) conferences. My dates are slightly different due to my absence on Friday the 16th for a conference out of town. Thank you for working with me.
I did not yet receive many entries for Science Fair, please be sure to have your 6th graders ready for Monday with their idea, title, and category. Peruse the material on the tab on this blog, and the material provided them in class.
Fifth years need to be working through their JABiztown books. I will start asking for specific work to be done at home over the next three weeks. Thank you in advance for working with them on these practical skills.
All students have access now to rubrics and examples of projects on the new Home projects page. Today, I have added the Word History Project guideline. Students talk a lot about words, where they come from, and how they are used. Many times they are surprised by the dictionary and thesaurus and their contents. Have fun chatting about word histories while working on this project! It does require a written report. An example of the expectation will be available by weekend’s end.
Do review last week’s post to access the PTC sign up and the REMIND app. Thanks again!
