September almost over

As we finish the month of September, students are showing progress and high interest in what they are learning. Today we completed a second Math pop quiz and the unit test is Oct. 5. We have been reviewing and learning new poetic devices, using the poetry of song. This coming week they will look for how poetic devices are used in poetry, completing a scavenger hunt booklet with a partner. This assignment will help to prepare them for a poetic device quiz on Oct. 6. In Science, students are very engaged in the class work but have been forgetting to do their homework and have until next Tuesday to catch up. History is progressing well. Tests in both Science and History will occur in the next two weeks. We are concluding our football unit in Phys. Ed. with evaluation of passing, receiving and game play. Harassment (verbal, physical, written and electronic) is the focus in Health for the next month.
