Ms. Clark's Science -
Last week we were able to cover taxonomy (Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species) and this week we will begin studying the basic composition of cells. We will also use Brock microscopes to magnify the details in small images.

Mrs. Frank and Ms. Walter's English
English will be finishing our compare and contrast essay over tsunamis and rogue waves. We will study the poem, "The Road Not Taken," by Robert Frost.
Mrs. Frank's essays will be due Wednesday. Mrs. Walter's essays are due Friday.
Note from Ms. Walter:
As the long term sub for Mrs. Martin's English class, I find these students a joy to teach. The students are respectful, fun and hard workers. I am working closely with Mrs. Frank and following the plans that Mrs. Martin left. I may have had some of the students older siblings because I taught at Central for 17 years before my retirement..
