Good Morning… I hope everyone is being productive, staying active, have a schedule, listening to your parents and are checking every teachers blog every day. Use this time to do somethings you may have never had time for or wanted too like start a journal, read a lengthy chapter book or two, write a book, create a comic book, construct the biggest Lego building ever, watch Frozen II, do a complicated puzzle, play board games, learn to cook, learn to do laundry, workout, draw, do a science experiment, etc. Here’s the thing… staying busy and keeping to a schedule similar to school is very very important. This is NOT a vacation from your education and by keeping up on that will help. I promise.
Social Studies:
We had our pre-scheduled test yesterday on Chapter 22… almost everyone took it, not sure why 10 students did not. Also, I corrected the one question; my fault I spelled it wrong on the answer key. So just like any test there is a re-take this Friday the 20th then it will be closed. Question? Did you do your foldable? That is due when we get back, however if you like to take a picture of it and send it to me then I can grade them promptly. We are now however moving forward with Chapter 21 “Three Chinese Philosophies” so for the next two weeks we are working on that. I have two assignments for you to work on. Read below…
Do the Lesson Game for Chapter 21 & then and do the Notebook section on TCI. We did these with the first two chapters back in the beginning of the year. I know they are not your favorite, but we need to cover Chapter 21 and 23. I will ultimately design a Kahoot! for you and then if we do go back in mid-April we will do a test on those two chapters together. Remember this situation is ever changing and very fluid.
Science:
I got a lot of students do their IXL assignments but not as much as I like, but that’s ok you have till Friday. I will start entering those grades tomorrow. Also, do those two NEWSLEA Articles that you may have not done. And continue to type of every component (part) that I assigned of the your Lab Report.
Lastly, I am checking my e-mails frequently. I have answered ever e-mail students and parents have sent me that need clarification on my classes. Please continue to do that. I want to assist you. 🙂 Be safe and healthy.
