Tiger Teacher Topics of the Week
Mrs. Jester's Math
In Mrs. Jester's Pre-AP Pre-Algebra class, we will be working on determining if two quantities show an inverse variation. We will also spend two days reviewing for our Ratios and Proportions Test that will be on Friday after Fall Break.
"There is no elevator to success, you have to take the stairs."
Mrs. Campbell and Mrs. Turnbow's Math
Mrs. Reynolds' Spanish
This week, be prepared to learn some questions in Spanish. We will also continue to practice with the definite and indefinite articles as well as learn and memorize the subject pronouns. Verbs are coming!
Ms. Jasper's Science
We will start building our own circuits, and do several activities related to electricity.
Please start saving toilet paper rolls in preparation for building our flash lights and send them to school!!!
Quiz Thursday over Chapter 2 Lesson 2.
You can download the ConnectEd app on your child's phone or tablet, and use their username and login I sent you to let them readily have access to videos and activities that go with our book if you want.
Ms. Clark's Science
We are still learning that electrons are invisible, but they have a force that can move and travel. We will be making sense of traveling electrons in an open and closed circuit. Supplemental information can be found in chapter 2. Enrichment opportunities can be found on the PHET website. Lots of great simulations.
Current Clark/Jasper Classroom Needs:
1-2 packages of balloons
2-3 rolls of masking tape, and I know this sounds odd but.... we anticipate the need for a couple of strings of older holiday lights ...we will be cutting out sections and won't be able to return them....lighter colored bulbs work better, as darker ones won't do as well in our 'flashlights' we'll be making.
Thank you as always for thinking of us!"
Mr. Janzen and Mrs. Anderson's Social Studies
October 20th was the end of the first 9-weeks, we will take our 9-weeks test during the week of November 7th. Study materials will be completed in the days prior to the test.
Mrs. Martin and Mrs. Frank's English
English classes will be taking a summative assessment. We will begin exploring our new theme Making Your Voice Heard by reading non-fiction texts with differing points of view about owning exotic animals as pets.
Mrs. Edwards' Literacy
Have a little fun with your kids at home!!! They LOVE this Dance!!
