Week of 5/11-5/15
It's hard to believe we only have two weeks left. This is a crazy week because of Field Day which is on Thursday, 5/14 for 8th grade. We will be working on memorizing either our poem 'O'Captain, My Captain" OL or Quotes from Taming of the Shrew for AC. They are due on Wednesday 5/13.
On Friday, 5/15 all classes will have a test to finish up their units. OL will be on poetry and AC will be on the play.
Attached is the poetry study guide which will help them prepare as well as the Elizabethan era power point for AC. Poetry study guide: Download Poetry Review AC: PowerPointDownload Elizwpictures Remember to know all of the characters because there are characteristics given and you need to match them with the character. Some characters have more than one characteristic. Both tests are on scantron.
Reading cards/logs were due on Monday. I will accept late ones until Friday.
After Friday, NO LATE WORK WILL BE ACCEPTED UNLESS OUT SICK.
Finals will be given next week on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Monday is a regular class day. Tuesday will have a study hall and then the White and Purple final. Wednesday will have a study hall/clean out lockers and the Yellow and Red final. Thursday will have the Green final and then a movie. If students wish to leave early to get ready for the dance they can leave after 12:45 or when they finish their final after 12:45.
Please have students bring in $1 for an envelope and stamp for sending report cards and other information home and give it to their homeroom teacher.
Dance tickets go on sale on Monday, 5/18 for $5.
Yearbooks will be distributed Friday morning.
