Howdy all. We've begun our tribal studies books, and will build upon them for the next few weeks as we study Native Californians. The kids are doing a great job pouring their energy and creativity into these projects, which is great since they will serve as the basis of the test that wraps the unit. The test is a few weeks off, so no worries yet.
The kids were given their first math take-home quiz today. These quizzes will serve as previews for the in-class exams. The students are more than welcome to use their text books for the take-home quizzes. Each problem correlates with a lesson number that we have done in class. The lesson number is presented in parentheses under each problem, should the kids need to reference the text for help.
Friday brings us further studies of Native Californians, as well as an electricity science experiment and the aforementioned math test. If time permits, we will also be working on the introductions and conclusions to our personal narratives.
Students are responsible for the following tonight:
-Reading Log
-Math quiz 2A
Respectfully, Mr. Bryant

Howdy all,
The Innisbrook wrapping paper fundraiser information was sent home yesterday and the kids had many questions regarding the whole process. I am trying to steer clear of these as they do not directly relate to our classroom activities. There should be contact information in the package to direct questions to. Also, thee fundraiser is completely optional. The kids should not feel obligated to participate.
The class is responsible for the following tonight:
-Reading log
-Math lesson 14, page 58, problems 1-20
-Reflections practice book, page 14
-There will be an Island of the Blue Dolphins quiz tomorrow covering chapters 11 - 18
Respectfully, Mr. Bryant

late Tuesday...
Folks, I have to apologize for the lateness of this post. We switched over servers at school this year and, as a result, internet connections have been spotty at best. This needed to wait until I got home from school, which, as usual, was later than I would have liked. From my best memory, the kids are responsible for the following tonight:
-Orange Folders
-Reading Log
-Math lesson 12, problems 1-20 (most completed in class)
-Reflections practice book page 13
Book orders need to be submitted no later than a week from Friday.
