Hi

There is no homework for tonight; however, I have offered extra credit for my math students. They may use the grid paper given to them today to make a shape in either quadrants 1,2,3, or 4. Make sure that you give the coordinates of the the shape.
Read Across America is March 2, 2010. Our class has to make a poster of two Authors from Montana and Ohio. I have a list of possible authors, but if you have any ideas, let me know. Each class' poster will be on display in the main hall. To celebrate Read Across America, you may wear you pajamas to school (this is optional).
Spelling and vocabulary words will be different this time around. We will have 6 vocabulary words and 10 from the spelling list with an additional 4 more vocabulary words from science. Just look on the right side for your words.
We will also be writing expository essay next week.

  2. Hey, Bri! Sorry that I am just know seeing your comment. We are going to wear Pjs on Tuesday for Read Across America and we are having 10 spelling words because I want to focus on science vocabulary because your assessment is coming up after we get back from spring break.
