ALL STUDENTS NEED TO KNOW THEIR EMAIL AND APPLE ID PASSWORDS, we've had several issues this week with kids not knowing these passwords and not being able to get in to apps that they needed. This also affects them receiving emails.
ELA
We've been working on a mini unit on figurative language (Christmas/Winter themed) and Robert Frost poetry. It's been a fun way to end the quarter.
The AR goal for this quarter is 100,000 words. I gave out reports this week to let each student know where they stand.
HISTORY
We have had the best week discussing Child Labor and Moving West. Your children really get into our interactive activities and I know they are gaining a lot from them. Thank you for trusting me and supporting me in the way I teach. :)
