Today we began hearing the poems students have been memorizing.  We will continue with this through Thursday.  I will then choose five to go to finals.  This is a graded assignment and will be entered as an English grade.

Tomorrow will be our chapter 9 math test.  We then begin our geometry unit.  Wednesday I will give the chapter 8 social studies test.  To take some of the “test” pressure off, I am making Thursday’s science test an open book, open notes test.

Tuesday morning at 10:30 we will enjoy a Japanese Chiyogami art session.  This will be given by the Children’s Celebration of the Arts Educational Outreach Program.  It should be great fun!

All students should be working on gathering information about their wax museum people.  A reminder that it is due in class on or before June 8th.  The night of Wednesday, June 13th, will be our big presentation for parents. I have asked the students to write a paragraph of the most important information about their person and put it on an index card.  I would like a copy of this information as soon as they have completed it.

Please support our Jog-a-thon!  The big event takes place this Friday.

Friday is noon dismissal.

Monday is the field trip to the Oxnard Performing Arts Center to see the play Ellis Island. Please make sure you have sent the permission slip and money for the play.

Blessings!
