The Week of February 3rd to 7th, 2014

Greetings!

I know this is not really a progress report; the students have not turned in any work yet, but I wanted to start out Quarter #3 on time.  I believe the report cards will be mailed out this week, so please be on the lookout for them.  So below is what we will be doing this week:

SCIENCE--No homework this week, but there will be a QUIZ ON FRIDAY (2/7).  We have labs on Monday & Wednesday, and discussions & notes to take on Tuesday & Thursday.  Now here's the "biggie":  the end of the unit TEST WILL BE ON WEDNESDAY, February 12th.  It will be WORTH 100 POINTS.  Please help your student begin studying for this right away, don't wait until Tuesday night.  The best thing he/she can do is bring home his/her Science Notebook.  While it is there, please go over it for completeness.  SCIENCE NOTEBOOKS WILL BE TURNED IN THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 13th.  These will ALSO be WORTH 100 POINTS.  We will spend next Monday & Tuesday reviewing for the test.

ACADEMY--We will continue to make a Lit Log entry this week, but we have also started our "Figurative Speech" unit.  There's a homework assignment on Similes given out in class on Wednesday, due Thursday, and there will be a Metaphors assignment given out in class on Thursday that will be due on Friday.  No homework over the weekend from me, of course.

The students already know that I will be gone on Friday, February 7th (training in Seattle).  Also, remember that next Wednesday is a "Late Start" day, and there is no school Friday, February 14th through Monday, February 17th.  Enjoy the midwinter break.  As always, please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns,
