Thursday

Howdy all, and thanks for checking in. We are still on lice patrol, so please be mindful of checking your child periodically. There is a great product available at CVS that is an electrified comb that zaps the nits and adult lice without having to use the heavy-duty medication. We have 5 confirmed cases at this point.

The kids are responsible for the following tonight:

- math 8.4, pages 177 - 178, problems 1-29
- Reflections WB pages 22 & 23
- we have a spelling quiz tomorrow

Respectfully, Mr. Bryant

Happy Wednesday

Howdy all, and thanks for checking in. It is my unfortunate duty to inform you each that the class has experienced a lice exposure again. Each student was screened by the school health clerk as a precautionary measure. You may choose to check your child again periodically during the course of this week as well, just to err on the side of caution.

Other than that, we are doing quite well as we wrap up our Native Californians studies. The study guides are coming together nicely, and we will finish the in-class portion of the work on Friday. The kids will then be able to take the material home for a week in an effort to prepare for next Friday's exam. Good times.

The kids are responsible for the following tonight:

- complete Mrs. Mitchener's Problem o' the Week
- Math 8.3, page 175, problems 1-19
- Reflections review questions 1-5 on page 88 of the textbook. Answer are to be written as complete sentences on lined paper.

Respectfully, Mr. Bryant

Tuesday

Howdy all, and thanks for checking in. I don't know what is in the air, but the class has been wacky this week. Maybe they are all still wishing for a week's worth of restructured days! Regardless, we are moving forward with the hopes of a better tomorrow.

Tonight, the kids are responsible for the following:

- math 8.2, pages 171 & 172, problems 1-27
- math problem o' the week
- continue with Tonya's Reunion spelling words

Respectfully, Mr. Bryant

Monday

Howdy all, and thanks for checking in. I'd like to thank everyone for a very successful conference week. I felt that the conversations and outcomes were very positive, and I greatly appreciate your children being present. I know that many of them were nervous, but was glad to see most of them walk out with a renewed sense of self.

Today's Monday Folders are light on returned, as we were working on a short schedule last week. Please mindful of returning the Mission San Juan Bautista permission slips in a timely manner. Parents interested in coming along on the trip just need to drop me an email.

The kids are responsible for the following tonight:

- Monday Folder
- Math 8.1, page 169, problems 1 - 16
- Reading Practice Book pages 106 & 107 (this week's spelling list)

Respectfully, Mr. Bryant
