Happy 2010

Can you believe it is already 2010 and the school year is almost 1/2 over??? It is going by so fast. Sounds like eveyone had a good break. Some things to look forward to in the coming months:

  • We have started reading our new historical fiction book - The Sign of the Beaver - it won an Newbery Honor.
  • Reproductive Health will start next week followed by a unit on the Solar System and Space (actually it is called Objects in the Sky).
  • We are going to do some reading and writing assessments over the next two weeks and then start essay writing. I'm excited to see more of your writing - your personal narratives were fantastic.
  • We are learning about the census that will take place this year and then we will move on to Geometry.
  • We will be taking our Mission to Mars in March. Look for more information later.

  3. Yes, Dillon, I think that the census is pretty important. One thing it does is helps the government decide how to spend all of our tax money and hopefully they spend it where it is needed the most.
