Oct 28

HOMEROOM:
Not much happening this week in terms of homework because of ITBS testing on Wednesday and Thursday. Spelling was handed out on Tuesday and will be collected Thursday. We will also have the test Thursday as well.

All money and permission slips were due for the field trip this Friday. I think we are all set for that. Make sure students dress warm, or for the conditions, this Friday.

WRITING:
We only had 2 days of writing this week due to testing and the field trip. We collected the first body paragraph and looked at most of them as a group. This was really the first "major" assignment that was given and assessed. Students got a solid look at what they were doing right, and what they needed to work on.
