August 27, 2010 -- Today's Agenda

Bell-Ringer:  Students completed a quiz based on the disclosure document, and we later discussed it.
Assignment: Return the signed and filled out disclosure signature sheet and VIP form by September 2.

A2 received bar codes for their student planners.  I still have some bar codes for students who were absent, or were moved from my A2 class.

Students were told about the Book-of-the-Month Club. See this post for more information:

Required Individual Reading

 

We took a "fieldtrip"  to the media center where Mrs. Jones presented an enhanced introduction to the media center.  Students had an opportunity to select and check out books. 

Our librarians are Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Bird. 

     You may check out up to three books for up to two weeks  with one renewal (unless the book is in great demand), and the late fine is ten cents a day.  

 

Back in the classroom: Mrs. Dorsey presented a "Reading Minute" from Antsy Does Time by Neil Shusterman.

 

A2 and A4 received the first spelling assignment.  A1 and A3 will receive it next time. See

First Assignments for 2010-2011

  

Don't forget to bring your composition book

if you have not yet brought it. 

Please write your first and last name and period 

on the front.
