Monday, November 9

We are now in the first full week of the second quarter. I imagine that the second quarter will go just as quickly as the first did. We accomplished quite a bit in the first quarter of this year. Both seventh and eighth graders finished at least one classroom novel. Eighth graders have begun The Outsiders, and soon the seventh graders will begin their second classroom novel of the year. Before we do that, I plan to spend a little more time on discussing The Ranger's Apprentice and this particular genre before we move on.

Remember, Tuesday is Parent/Teacher conferences and I hope to see all of the students and their parents are able to attend. If you can't make it that night, but would like to speak with me, please call and we can set up an alternative time. This conference is set up arena-style in the gym. That is also the time that first quarter report cards are available.
