ELA- Mr. Jones
With conferences this past week, we had a light week in class. We visited the Book Fair and had some extra reading time during class periods. More drafting Realistic Fiction Stories and helping students who are running into obstacles is also something we encountered. Next week, we will focus on meaningful dialogue, and writing great beginnings, and revising where needed.
Science- Mrs. Creath
Social Studies- Mrs. Pettid
This week students have been working on their Geography Summative Projects. They should be completed by the end of the hour on Thursday, with presentations to begin Monday. Later next week, we will be beginning our World Religions Unit.
