Tuesday, October 22

Hello all, and thank you for checking in.  Tomorrow is our big 'ol Native Californians quiz.  I cannot impress upon folks how important it will be for the kids to come to school with their study guides.  Not only will I be collecting them, but they kids will be allowed to have access to them during the exam.  They will not be allowed to reference the text book.

The kids are responsible for the following today:

-30 minutes DEAR
- math lesson 9.3, page 197, problems 12-23
- continue with book report efforts on protagonist.  If done, move on to the antagonist.

Respectfully, Mr. Bryant

Monday, October 21

Hello all, and thanks for checking in.  We have a very busy week ahead of us, and the kids are feeling of the pressure of both the upcoming Native Californians quiz  (Wednesday) and the October Book Report (a week from Thursday).  We will work with our planners today in an effort to schedule our study/ work time effectively.

I have a quick favor to ask.  If each family, during their next trip to the grocery store, would please purchase and send in a box of Kleenex tissue for the classroom, it would be greatly appreciated.  The school can't seem to keep enough on hand, and these kids are full of boogers.

The kids are responsible for the following today:

- reading practice book page 162 (this week's spelling words)
- 30 minutes DEAR
- continue studying for Wednesday's Native American quiz (use study guide for DEAR time!)
- consider beginning your book report efforts by working on the protagonist paragraph
- math lesson 9.2, page 194, problems 7-15

Respectfully, Mr. Bryant
