Academy Plans for April 25th through 29th, 2016

Greetings!

Wasn't the "Evening of Excellence" wonderful?  It was so much fun to honor the students as they have been working so hard this year in so many different areas.  If you weren't able to attend, and you received an invitation, your student should have received his/her certificate and bumper sticker 7th period on Friday.  If there is a problem, please let us know ASAP so we can resolve it.  Now on to this week's plans:

MONDAY--Students will look over examples of the "Biography Project" to see what they will be doing, so there will be NO HOMEWORK.

TUESDAY--Students will write the rough draft of Paragraph #1 (first character trait).  This is HOMEWORK DUE WEDNESDAY.

WEDNESDAY--Students will write the rough draft for Paragraph #2 (second character trait).  This is also HOMEWORK DUE THURSDAY.

THURSDAY--Students will write the rough draft of the third character trait for Paragraph #3.  This is HOMEWORK too, so it will be DUE FRIDAY.

FRIDAY--Ms. Benek will come in for our weekly "Say It Straight" lesson, so NO HOMEWORK.

For the Biography Project, since I have never attempted it on computers before, I may have to adjust the due dates for the different paragraphs--the students may type faster of slower than I expect.  Please bear with me--if the due dates change, I will try to alert you as soon as possible.

This week marks the start of our State Testing.  On Thursday, your student will be testing on his/her Chromebook 2nd and 3rd periods.  Please be sure he/she gets a good night's sleep the night before and has a nutritious, filling breakfast on Thursday.

As always, if you have any questions, comments, and/or concerns, please contact me ASAP.  The best email address to reach me at is humblem@tenino.k12.wa.us and the phone number in my classroom is (360) 264-3644.

Have a wonderful week,
Michele Humble
