Daily Update--Sept.13/11

ELA--The students should be reading every night. The rough draft of their friendly letter is due tomorrow so they can self-edit, and then have the good copy completed and handed in by Friday, the latest. I want them to edit on their own as this will be the first writing sample of the year. As we do more writing, I will be editting with them.

I handed out an informational letter to the students (printed on purple paper) to give to their parents. It is a short summary of what has already been covered in class, as well as an opportunity for me to inform the parents of what is going on in the subject areas. I have asked the students to get this letter signed by their parents, and return the letter to me tomorrow.

8C--SS--Have questions 1 to 12 on the Scavenger Hunt completed for tomorrow.

8R--SS--have questions 1 to 19 on the Scavenger Hunt completed for tomorrow.

Thank-you, and have a good evening.
