We've got quite the exciting week ahead of us: our wax museum on Wednesday (1-2), our Valentine's day party on Thursday (and we are still in need of donations/volunteers), DWA prep, and our Unit 7 test on Friday! Have a wonderful week!
Homework:
1) Math (7-21): p. 201 evens, p. 202 evens! Also, redo all low-scoring quizzes and practice! The unit 7 test is this Friday!
2) Read 20 minutes (and every single day if your reading log grade is a little low to bring that up!)
3) Spelling homework!
4) Wax museum project--interview any professional who manages resources! Click here for the letter!
5) Missing work!
6) Practice typing games by going to "Games & Practice"-->"Language Arts." Remember that the DWA will be a typed assessment, so any typing practice you put in now will help! (P.S. Each time you bring in a signed note from your parent saying you spent at least 15 minutes practicing, you'll get a $50 bonus)!
