Week of January 12th

This week we will begin writing our outlines for our “How-To” presentations.  Students DO NOT need to start working on their presentations or videos at home yet.  The earliest that this projects will be due is Wednesday, January 28th.  I don’t set an initial due date because I like to see how the outlines and PowerPoints are coming along before I set a date.  

We will be starting our Winter MAP testing this week.  We will test on Thursday of this week and also Thursday of next week.  

Progress reports will be emailed home on Friday, January 16th this week.  Remember, these are not final grades but rather a snapshot of how they are doing midway through the 2nd trimester. 

Wednesday, January 21st, is Family Reading Night.  Students are brining home a handout today with information regarding this event.

On Saturday, January 24th, my Varsity Boys’ Basketball team plays in our Interstate 8 Conference Tournament.  That is also the date of our Coaches vs. Cancer fundraiser.  This year, my team is hosting a “Chili Dinner” from 3PM-7PM that night.  Tickets for the dinner are $5 and that includes chili, toppings, cornbread, dessert, and lemonade.  If you would be interested in purchasing a ticket, please let me know.  Money raised from the dinner is being donated to the American Cancer Society and local cancer patients.
