Hello Students!

I hope that you and your parents were able to visit Hillcrest Middle yesterday to get your registration card. If so, your parents will fill out the card and you will give it to me upon completion.
We only have one more week left before Spring Break. So, we have to really hit the books hard this week.
Our spelling and vocabulary words will have a scientific background; thus, they will be more challenging. I suggest that you study and practice fervently this week.
Don't forget that Spring Pictures are Tuesday.
Science test is this Tuesday.
Expository Essay is due Monday.
We will begin writing our Narrative Essay tomorrow.
To end the week off with a bang, we will have a Rally in the lunchroom this Friday.
If I forgot to add anything else to this post, I will add it tomorrow. Oh, don't forget to get your Mother's Day Cake order form in sometime this week.
Reading Logs are due tomorrow
