Last Day of Marking Period 5 is March 26th!
Weeks of March 8-19th:
Students are working on country research for Eastern Europe. Projects are due March 18th. Remember to include a rubric for each and a follow-up or follow-along activity for the class.
In Language Arts we are learning about adjectives and adverbs, and there will be a test on March 24th.
We are also finishing Wizard of Earthsea, and there will be a test due March 22nd. We are focusing on conflict, theme and 3-dimensional characterization.
Students have also have their simple book report. They are to read a chapter book at their reading level by the end of each marking period, and there is a 1 page handout that they are to complete neatly after reading the book. The project requires no bells or whistles, but is designed to just encourage students to enjoy reading.
