I want to take a minute to thank all parents, family, and friends who volunteered their time this morning for our 7th grade career fair. The students greatly enjoyed all presentations and were very excited to share their experiences!
Looking forward to next week, we will be reading the works of Edgar Allen Poe including the short story "The Fall of the House of Usher" and poem "The Haunted House." Our skill focus will be on pulling out story elements and discussing their importance in the text. We will conclude the week by writing our own "scary stories" following Poe's example.
In 3rd period reading, we will finish reading Pacific Crossing and write a final journal assessment on Friday.
In 7th grade language arts, we will be reading, listening to, and creating our own radio shows. Throughout the weeks, students will be allowed to work in groups to prepare a radio show to share with the class.
In 7th grade reading, we will meet with Miss Hagensee to discuss the summer reading lists and continue reading the works of Ray Bradbury.
In 8th grade math, we will be finishing up Chapter 12 and will have a final in-class assessment on Wednesday.
For additional information and assignment rubrics, please see Mrs. Mastny and Mrs. Myer's blogs.
Have a great weekend!
