Wednesday

Hey, class!  Great job on your science fair projects -- I am SO proud of your efforts!

A quick update for the week:

For homework tonight:
Vocab: Unit 13 test tomorrow, cumulative on Friday. (WW13 due tomorrow)
Math: Math review packet

For homework tomorrow night:
Vocab: Study for cumulative test (unit 11-13)
Math: Math review practice

For homework Friday/Spring Break:

OAKS tests are just around the corner (the third week back from spring break we start).  It's important that you do not lose any of your knowledge over break, so you MUST be reading and practicing your math skills. I have made you a packet of work to do over break -- including one word work -- we will listen to the song before you leave and also when you get back... test will be the Monday you get back :). (We will start our 8th grade words the first week you're back)

Homework packet has the following:
Word Work Unit 14
Math Work (fractions, area, volume, decimals, POW problem(s))
Reading Comprehension Passages
ALL OF THIS WILL BE DUE THE MONDAY YOU GET BACK... if you budget your time wisely, this will not be a big deal.

Tuesday

Hey, class!

We have a short (but very busy) week.

Important notes/homework due dates:

Math: No POW this week, area homework (for my class)

Reading: Reading Journal

Vocab: WW12 due Monday/Quiz Monday

Writing: Your final draft of your "argumentative writing" was due last Friday.  I need this in ASAP if you have not turned it in.

Science: Body systems project was due last Friday.  I need this ASAP if you have not turned it in.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  Science fair is next Wednesday! We will have the computer lab checked out for 30 minute chunks the next five class days.  On Thursday, I will give you your science boards so you can begin laying out your presentation.

Have a great evening!

Ms. Evans
