The quiz grades were excellent! Grades have been emailed to students. Didn't turn in the extra credit? No worries, you may still turn it in on Monday but will not receive full credit.

Next week we will start Social Studies for about 2 weeks. The topic will be on Explorers and Colonial America. There will be NO flashcards. Students deserve a break; however I will give you a list of vocabulary words (events and people mostly) and you will need to know them.

Progress reports went home today. Please sign and return them on Monday. If you have any questions please let me know. There should be only one Social Studies grade. We will have more soon as we move on to that topic.

PROJECTS- Parents, please help your child with the 50 states project. I have asked it be completed on Google Drive so it can be accessed at home and school. The phrase, "I left it at home (or school)" should not be an issue.  The technology teacher will be showing students how to cite sources and the library teacher will be showing students how to research using books/encyclopedias. For this reason, the project needs to be in a universal location. Thanks for your help.
