Next
week is a super short week. We'll have
school on Monday and Tuesday, and then it's Thanksgiving Break. Start thawing that turkey! |

Math |
||
|
Problem Set 5 -
highlighted problems We did not have math class today due to the Mountaintop
Breakfast. Tomorrow, we will have a non-traditional
class. We will not do a problem set,
and we will instead graph data in a variety of ways. Weekend homework will be to finish your
graphs. * You may always redo
incorrect problems on a problem set to try for a higher grade. * Bring your calculator
to school every day (keep it in your trapper) |

1. A TYPED FINAL PAPER of your suspense story
is due next Tuesday before we go on Thanksgiving Break. We will continue to edit (peer, self, and
teacher) in class. Remember to: ·
double space ·
right align heading (name, date, and subject) ·
center, capitalize, and quote heading ·
delete extra spaces between paragraphs ·
check spelling and grammar 2. BOOK ORDERS are due
TOMORROW.
This is a great opportunity to get a jump start on Holiday Gifts. 3. Read 20 minutes each night. On Mondays I'll check to see if you had 100
minutes or more for the previous week.
(It's a great way to earn a 100% every week!) 4. You can always study your spelling words. They should be written down in your
spelling steno located in your big trapper.
Each student continues to add new words to their list when they
receive graded papers with spelling errors.
The week after Thanksgiving we will have a spelling test. |
