Johnson's Journal November 3, 2014

My math students took their first Mid-Module Assessment (chapter test) last week.  The assessments have been corrected, grades entered into Campus, and were returned to the students on Friday.  Please ask your student to see their tests.  Many have work that they should be anxious to show off to you! If you have questions about your learner's progress, please contact me.  

In Social Studies, the sixth graders have been working hard on creating dialogues in which they are applying skills taught in language arts and demonstrating an understanding of what life was like at Border Cave.  They are off to a great start but now need a bit of help from you.  They are ready to have their work edited and make any revisions necessary to improve their writing.  Your child is to choose two of their four dialogues to revise.  Would you please look over the two they have chosen tonight (Monday) and help them with this process?  Evidence of editing and revisions will result in extra points on your student's final grade for this project.  We will be ready to start our final drafts which will be published so I am looking for high quality work.  Thanks for your help in this process!

Don't forget the early dismissal on Wednesday for staff development meetings.
