This week in social studies and advisory!

Hello there,
I hope you all enjoyed the lovely weather over the weekend!

For the FIRST TIME EVER my advisory is going to Nick's on Wednesday! Please remember to bring your permission slip in by Wednesday, and to bring $5 for pizza on Wednesday.

For social studies, we have homework on Monday night, and a quiz on Wednesday (so Tuesday night you have homework too--study for the quiz!) Please see the weekly syllabus for further details. You can find it by clicking HERE.

Remember, if you wish to do the CROP WALK on Sunday, May 1st, you need to get a permission slip signed and bring it with you to the walk. You can find permission slips on the bulletin board just outside the C wing.

Finally, permission slips for Key Lime Cove are due April 20th! You can find these next to Ms. Pavlis' room on the bulletin board.

Have a great week!

Welcome Back!

I hope you all had a WONDERFUL relaxing spring break!

I am looking forward to finishing the year with our study of the Civil War and Reconstruction! I am also really excited about our work in Core Extension working on the research projects and reading Bang and Chains.

If you need any extra time at the Media Center to work on any of your school work--or even just to have some time on the computer to practice your keyboarding skills!--I have made a special hand out with Media Center hours. Please click here to see this!

Have a great week!

Week of 3.14.11

This week we are finally *finally* having our "we finished our first DBQ party"!

The party is on Thursday. Please bring a dish that is a family favorite! Please bring enough food to feed 15 students (at most!)

If it is not possible to bring something homemade, then please see me and I'll give you an alternative option.

This week's syllabus is HERE. We have homework Monday and Tuesday nights. Wednesday night's homework is to make the dish for the party!

Have a great week!

This week!

Welcome back to class everyone! Today is the first day of your LAST trimester as a 7th grader! Congratulations! I am asking everyone to be certain that they come to class prepared, with all materials, and that you make sure that while you are in class you are focused on academics! The classroom is not the lunch room, nor is it the hallway. While you are in class, our entire focus is on learning. That's it!

Also, I wanted you to know that we will finally be having our party that got rescheduled due to the blizzard. Our party will be Friday March 18th. I've asked each student to bring a favorite home made dish that is a family tradition or favorite of some kind. Please only make enough for 15 students--we will have way, way too much food if you make more than that! I especially love it when students bring something in that they make themselves!

This is the FINAL week for health; next week we go back to having core extension.

Have a great week!
