Greetings!
Well, we all managed to survive Outdoor School! Hopefully your sixth grader had a terrific time; I know I sure did! I'll bet your student spent a great deal of time sleeping over the weekend--we were plenty busy up there. But now it's back to "civilization", so here is what we will be doing this week:
MONDAY--Each student will receive his/her "Outdoor School Student Handbook" and will begin recording their reflections. These will be DUE THURSDAY.
TUESDAY--Students will take the "Outdoor School Plant Identification Post Test". This will be DUE AT THE END OF THE PERIOD. They will have the rest of the time to work on their "ODS Student Handbooks", which will be DUE THURSDAY.
WEDNESDAY--Students will begin working on their "Plant Identification Research Worksheets". These will be DUE AT THE END OF THE PERIOD ON FRIDAY.
THURSDAY--Students who wish to RETAKE THE ELECTRICITY QUIZ will be allowed to do so. Afterward, students will fill out the "Outdoor School Evaluation Form". This will be DUE AT THE END OF THE PERIOD.
FRIDAY--Students will have more time to work on their "Plant Identification Research Worksheets". These will be DUE AT THE END OF THE PERIOD. NO HOMEWORK OVER THE WEEKEND.
As you can see above, your student will have the opportunity to RETAKE THE ELECTRICITY QUIZ on Thursday, October 26th. Please look this progress report over and find your child's score on the quiz. If either you or your sixth grader is not satisfied with the grade, please encourage him/her to UPDATE & STUDY THEIR NOTES prior to retaking the quiz. I emailed the slide show to your student prior to the quiz, so he/she should still have it. It would be very helpful if you could look over the notes your student has recorded in his/her Science Notebook. Remember: your sixth grader CAN USE THESE NOTES ON THE QUIZ.
I hope to get several other assignments entered into Skyward this week, and as we get closer to the end of this first quarter, if I notice that your student is receiving a failing grade due to missing assignments, I will be contacting you to see if "Saturday School" is a possibility. Thank you for your support on this.
Just a reminder: If you would like to schedule a conference, please contact the TMS Office at 360-264-3600. The evening conferences fill up quickly, so call quickly if you need one of those.
Please contact me if you have any questions, comments, and/or concerns. The phone number in my classroom is 360-264-3644 and the best email address to reach me at is humblem@tenino.k12.wa.us
Have a wonderful week,
Michele Humble
