One more week until the Winter Break--we're still plugging. Please review this progress report carefully and look for any missing assignments. Encourage your student to take care of any work that has not been completed and turned in.
Here are our plans for this week:
ART--We will complete our project on etched glass by Wednesday, I hope. We will spend the rest of the week working in cut paper on holiday still life.

Art for the Week of December 9th through 13th
Greetings!
Brrr!!! Cold enough for you? Fortunately my classroom is nice and toasty! With the weather forecast, be sure to stay alert for any school time changes due to snow or ice. And just a reminder, Wednesday, December 11th, is a LATE START DAY. Please plan accordingly.
Now on to the events of this week:
ART--We will begin our last project before the holiday break. About half of the students have finished painting their ornaments, so the rest will complete this project on Monday. Tuesday we will go over the steps for making etched glass. Once that is done, it will take about a week to complete the project. PLEASE SEND A DOLLAR WITH YOUR STUDENT TO COVER THE COST OF THE GLASS. Students should turn this money into the office.
Have a terrific week, and as always, feel free to contact me [email--humblem@tenino.k12.wa.us or phone--(360) 264-3644].

Thursday they will begin to work on the project itself as well as the presentation they will give to the class.

Art Class Plans for December 2nd through 6th, 2013
Greetings!
Hope your holiday weekend was a good one! Great time to recharge the batteries and get ready for the next three weeks. Hopefully some homework was also worked on this weekend. I am becoming VERY concerned with the amount of assignments that the students are not turning in. If your student has ANY missing work, please talk to him/her and make sure it gets turned in ASAP.
Now on to this week's plan:
ART--We will complete last week's Christmas Still Life on Monday; this will be due by Wednesday. Tuesday & Wednesday each student will design & decorate a glass ornament for the school Christmas tree (Our Art class is in charge of decorating it). Thursday & Friday we will move on to creating another Christmas still life; however, this one will be done in construction paper. This assignment will be due next Monday.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions and/or concerns. The best email address is humblem@tenino.k12.wa.us or call the number in my classroom, which is (360) 264-3644.
Have a wonderful week,
Michele Humble

Now on to this week's plan:
SCIENCE--Monday we will do a lab and Tuesdays students will get back several assignments we will discuss in class. Wednesday there will be a reading assignment with a comprehension worksheet--THIS WILL BE A HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT THAT WILL BE DUE ON THURSDAY. Thursday we will begin another lab. If it is not completed on that day, we will get it done on Friday. If it is completed on one day, we will take an assessment (quiz) in class on Friday.
ACADEMY--There is a HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT ON MONDAY THAT WILL BE DUE ON TUESDAY. Students are to create a rubric I will use to evaluate their daily group work. I really want their input on this, so this one is really important. Tuesday we will brainstorm research topics and the rest of the week (Wednesday through Friday) students will work in groups doing the research. So other than Monday night, there won't be any homework.
