February 21/07 Assignments

Students have a French Dictee tomorrow. They have been asked to write a letter in their journals to their parents. This letter should be focused on their reading goals . They were given class time to write their letters in class. Parents are encouraged to write back. Next week they will write one more letter to me and then their journals will be evaluated. In Social Studies, students should select four or five Prime Ministers that they would like to conduct further research on. They will have their names drawn randomly tomorrow in class and will be able to select only one Prime Minister to research and to present on. The linked web sites will help them to narrow their decisions. Science presentations on a renewable and non-renewable source of energy will begin this week. A reminder if anyone is interested in the "Movie Night" to please read handout given to students. On a final note, a big thanks to the students and parents that attended the student tri-conferences. The students were very proud to show off their e-portfolios. I would also like to thank everyone for their kind words and gifts given during staff appreciation week.
