We have had a smooth start to this new year!
Our first vocabulary test in Social Studies will be on Monday, the 13th of September and will cover Chapter 1 and 2. Students should have all of these words defined in their journals by that date as they will be allowed to use them on the quiz. They should have a total of 25 words for the two chapters.
We completed the first chapter on Native Americans and today we began Chapter two on exploration and colonization of the New World. I'm hoping that our first common assessment over these two chapters will be next Thursday, the 16th of September.
Students in our homerooms are working to create baskets for the auction next Friday night. Ask them about what they are expected to bring to their homerooms to help this effort. All of the proceeds will be used to help our athletic department.
Also, all 8th grade students will be taking the EXPLORE test on Friday, the 17th of September.
Mid-term reports will be sent home on September 20th.
Be looking for a letter detailing an up-coming field trip that we are planning on taking on Tuesday, November 16th.
As always, if you need anything, please email me and I'll get back in touch with you.
