Greetings!
We have some actual grades to post from the past two weeks, as well as a "Sneak Preview" of the upcoming week, so here goes:
MONDAY--We will be MAP testing on Math, so no homework. However, I will be grading their agenda/planner entries from last week.
TUESDAY--Aside from reading their AR books, students will learn how to make entries in their Lit Logs. We will also go over a sheet on the "Elements of Literature". No homework.
WEDNESDAY--We will be MAP testing for Reading, so no homework.
THURSDAY--After reading their AR books silently (SSR), students will begin to engage in a scavenger hunt based on their planners/agendas. No homework.
FRIDAY--After SSR, students will complete the agenda scavenger hunt. It will be due on Monday.
A couple of "odds & ends": I will be gone on Friday, but I expect the students to carry on just fine without me--they are a superior class. Also, if you haven't put it on your calendar yet, your student's Outdoor School experience will take place October 21st through the 24th. I will be having a parent night meeting in about two weeks (precise date to come shortly) to fill you in on the details. The fee is $75, and covers your child's meals, boarding, transportation, instructional materials, nurse, T-shirt to tie dye, and incidentals. You may pay this fee now; checks should be made out to Tenino Middle School and sent to the Office. Also, if you can afford a "little extra", many of our students will be in need of scholarships to cover this expense. In the past our parents have been extremely generous, some even sponsoring the entire fee for a student other than their own child. Every little bit helps.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to contact me. My classroom phone number is: (360) 264-3644 and my email address is: humblem@tenino.k12.wa.us (Please DON'T use the Skyward response; it does not work correctly.) I look forward to hearing from you.
Have a wonderful week,
Michele Humble
