Tuesday
Howdy all, and thanks for checking in. I sincerely hope that your children did not interrupt your dinner conversations last night with talk of cholera. We were studying diseases associated with the Gold Rush and researched cholera, yellow fever and scurvy while in the computer lab yesterday. The kids had an absolute "blast" learning about some rather unpleasant symptoms associated with cholera, in particular.
Some questions have arisen regarding the Saturday Night Golden Gulch activity, and I'd like to clear up any misunderstandings. The project is homework for the class, and is due a week from Friday, March 8. The kids have been asked to create something related to the Gold Rush to share with their classmates. It might be art, a diorama, a narrative, a dance, poem or song. The possibilities are many, but have to be centered around the Gold Rush.
Today, the kids are responsible for the following:
- DEAR
- RPB p. 392
- math 20.4, pages 449-450, problems 7-30
- Book Reports still due Thursday
Respectful, Mr. B

Happy Monday
Howdy all, and thanks for checking in. There is much to share, so let's get started.
1. Land biome quiz was exceptional. Overall, the kids knocked it out of the park. So great to see them take responsibility for their studies.
2. Golden Gulch is in full swing. We are officially Gold Rush miners.
3. This is our last week working out of the reading anthology for RTI. Next week our efforts turn toward a literature study with E.L. Konigsburg's Newberry Award-Winning From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Franweiler.
4. This Saturday I am spending the day at Elkhorn Slough and taking part in a naturalists workshop. This is in preparation for our spring trip to the reserve to follow up on our biome and food chain studies.
5. The February Book Report is due this Thursday. Don't procrastinate.
6. Golden Gulch Saturday Night activities are due on Friday, March 8th. The kids will be sharing their efforts on that day.
7. The grading period ends a week from Friday.
8. Red Folders are full of returned assignments today. Please review them with your child.
Today, the kids are responsible for the following:
- Red Folders
- 20 minutes DEAR
- math 20.3, p. 447, problems 5-22
- RPB p. 391
Respectfully, Mr. B
