Update - March 15

Hello Parents,

We had a great time during Career Day. Thanks to John Kelly, Bita Adham, John Berry, and Jeremy Broekman for taking the time to teach our class about their careers.

This week, we will...

• begin Life Science. 
  
• focus on the Athena Set of root words, prefixes, and suffixes. There will be a quiz on Thursday on the meanings of the word parts. Students who do not score a ten out of ten will be given opportunities to retake the quiz and earn their beads/points. The spelling list comes from the word parts, and there will be a quiz on Friday on the spelling and meanings of the words.
  
• get closer to finishing our essay on the history of California (the mission report).
• continue with area and perimeter, and begin the geometry standards. There will be a prequiz and a quiz on Thursday and Friday.
• say goodbye to Sofia, who is moving to Malaysia.  :(

Have a great week,
Christina Polay
