Well, we have survived a rainy week and are looking forward to the predicted sunshine and warmer weather this weekend!
This Sunday, May 1st, is the 2011 Ride Janie Ride. I want to thank all of you for your continued support throughout this past year and I feel very blessed to be surrounded with great co-workers and students! I have included the RJR link below if any of you would like to see/get to know this years recipients. www.ridejanieride.org
Looking forward to next week in 7th grade Language Arts, we will be moving onto prepositions. During this week, we will be taking notes and practicing using prepositions. In reading, we are continuing to read chapters 15-18 in Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie. Additionally, with the new AR books that we checked out this week, the May book report will be due on May 27th.
In 8th grade math, we are spending the week reviewing how to solve multi-step equations and fractions, in order to help us prepare for our transition to high school in the fall.
Finally, in 7th RTI Reading, we will be focusing on the reading skill of comparing/contrasting. We will use the "Turning Points" mini-unit in our readers to practice and apply this skill.
Have a wonderful weekend!
