Hello everyone,
We are almost to our goal of 100% participation for the Warner Annual Fund! Let's get there this week. Please send in your donations so that we can meet our goal and have a fun rock climbing party, too.
Book Talk/Project Information:
There is not one set due date for the class. Students signed up for a presentation date. On that day, in addition to presenting a Book Talk, students will turn in:
Literature Circles will be Wednesday morning instead of Tuesday because we have art with Mrs. Waldner. :)
Homework Assignments:
Our end-of-the-unit Science text is on Monday, March 2. We will be completing assignments in class this week that can serve as a study guide. Students should also use the textbook and science notebook to review what we have learned. Click here to read the unit's overarching concepts and vocabulary (scroll down to Physical Science).
Have a great week,
Christina Polay
