STUDY!

Tests tomorrow in History and Science. You guys have study sheets already made for science. You are working on your chapter checkup 8 study sheet tonight. Look over your material about 3 times and you should be good. Pay attention to tomorrows review. Keep looking over terms you are unsure about and you'll do well. I promise.

Wednesday there is Bible Test.

Thursday Bible Quiz.

Math: pg 99-101 and pg 367 lesson 56

Science: Define Ch. Check A

Homework light tonight. Map Master pg 57. Cheers!

Oh one other thing. The following students have not turned in their Ruth Project. Thought some of you parents would like to know considering this is a Test grade for Bible.

Ayrene
JD
Tai
Jarinn
Jacob
John
Luke
Kip
Sam
Makana
Josh P.
Kaulana
Devon
Sydney S
Traigh

Now, some of these students did do it but not how they were supposed to. I have given them another chance and another week to complete this project. However, that was only a few. Right now those students have 0's in the grade book until I see the project. There have only been two tests this quarter so a 0 + 1 other grade can really mess up your GPA. That's all.

Science: Read pg.'s 248-253 and answer the checkpoint on 253

History: Pick a current event, news article, that you think is important. Write a brief paragraph about why you think it's important and what the article is about. That will be due on Friday

Bible: Read Psalm 51

FRIDAY!!!!

Homework:

Math: Pg 88-92

Science: Pg 235-238 (Chapter Check 4.1)

English: Think of a topic for a Science Book Report

History: Comp. Check 8b

Most of you guys finished this today in class, for those of you who didn't. Get to it!

Also Parents, I saw this website and I thought it was an interesting read. Characteristics and Behaviors of the Gifted.

Also, we had a discussion in class about not being the 9th planet anymore. Here is a neat video about Bill Nye and what he thinks:

Math Homework Tonight

Lessons 48 and 50 on Pg 365 on a seperate sheet of paper. Yes, I want to see your work and the problem.

Don't forget about Project Ruth, typed.

Also, Parent's some of my students have lost books and have not been able to find them for a couple of weeks. Please ask them and see what books need to be reordered and replaced. Thank you.

Sorry for not updating, I've been scheduling and preparing for Parent Teacher Conferences. Homework tonight is light, basically anything they didn't finish in class. There is a Language Test tomorrow over punctuation and capitalization. The first quarter is over and all grades recorded from Monday on will be in the second quarter. Report cards will be sent home with the folders and will be discussed at Parent Teacher conferences.

Also, one thing that I've been wanting to do is post pictures of the class as we do activities. For example the symphony yesterday. I'm sure most of you would like to see pictures of your cute kids. I will be sending home a letter or you can comment that it's fine.

Thanks,
Joe

PICTURE DAY TOMORROW!

Quiz tomorrow in Science.

3.3-3.4 - We've heavily reviewed this stuff so you guys should know it. Still, look in your books for about 15-30 minutes reviewing terms. Don't forget that tomorrow is picture day! I always forget so I set up a reminder. Make sure you do your hair and brush your teeth, that means you Sam. :-)

Take care guys.

Quizzes

The History and Math Quizzes were postponed until tomorrow. We had a record number of absences on Monday and thought it not fair that I reviewed and they weren't there. So, tomorrow will be our History, Math, and Bible Quiz.

Don't forget your memory verse Joshua 21:25

Friday we will be simulating a volcanic explosion so, if you could bring a 2-Liter bottle of soda and a pack of Mentos (Original). If you're wondering why, check out the video:
