Weekly News: Week 3

I can't believe it's already September! These three weeks have really flown by. Students have started seeing Ms. Britto for science, and all our subject areas are up and running.  On Wednesday we had our first "Pay Day"... learning how to deposit our paychecks, earn bonuses, and pay fines!

Don't forget, Monday is Labor Day... I hope you all have a fun and relaxing three day weekend!

A few things to remember for next week:

  • Tuesday-- Safety Valets!
    • The new schedule is out and our class is scheduled for this week. Students received their new schedule today and should be at school on time for their shift. A few students are thinking about joining in, as well, to help make sure our MWF mornings are covered. Thank you to all of you who volunteered!
  • Tuesday-- Kindness Ambassador applications due
    • Ms. Britto had an informational meeting this past Wednesday. All interested students should have their forms with them on Tuesday so they may be considered. 
  • Wednesday-- Mid Module 1 Math test. 
    • Students received the study guide today, as well as a sheet with sample problems to work from. We will be reviewing for the test on Tuesday. All our math tests this year will be taken on the computer, to better prepare them for the state testing in May. Students should study this weekend for the test, which covers lessons 1-8. Don't forget there are videos for each of the lessons, found HERE. And I've also linked up our Study Guide, so you can see the types of questions your students should study, HERE. We will go over all the correct answers on Tuesday.
  • Thursday-- Picture Day!
    • If you have not already ordered your pictures for this school year, go to mylifetouch.com and use the school code BY416636Q0 to order online. We will be taking individual student pictures as well as a class photo.
