Week 7: October 5-9
Next week is Spirit Week at MIS. Please look at the bottom of this page for what is going on each day.
MIS will be having their first after school dance next Friday. A signup sheet was sent home with your student this week. Students need to submit their dance money to their homeroom teacher by Friday morning. Students will not be allowed to pay at the door for the dance.
Outer Banks receipts and account information was sent home with your students today. These receipts show what you have currently paid and earned through fundraising as well as what is still owed.
**IMPORTANT: STUDENTS NEED TO HAVE EARBUDS FOR EVERY CLASS. PLEASE CHECK WITH YOUR STUDENT AND MAKE SURE THEIR EAR BUDS WITH THEM.
Language Arts/Social Studies
This week in ELA students learned about the horrible tornado that struck Joplin, Missouri in 2011. We read an informational text and analyzed how the author's word choice can make a difference to the mood and theme of a story.
Next week students will be writing a narrative fiction story. We will also be studying the theme of a story.
