Rain, Rain, Go Away!!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend with your family. I do hope your child found time to work on their career project and began practicing their career speech.

During Language Arts this week the students have been practicing their speeches, adding information and/or deleting information to fit within the 3 - 5 minute time frame. Some of the students are ready with their visuals and bibliographies, where as others are still preparing. Students will be presenting their career speeches Wednesday through Friday this week. Students know which date they are presenting and have been given the rubrics for all pieces which will be graded.

We read chapter 13 and 14 in Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie this week in Reading. The remaining class periods of Reading will be devoted to career speeches, and an AR book check-out in the IMC for our May book project.

For those students going on the band trip to Tennessee, I wish you good luck, and have an enjoyable time! We will miss you!
