May 8, 2008

Today we finished the make-up tests for the English CRT's. Whew! Glad that is over. Now it's time to throw some fun and fast learnin' to keep everyone interested for the rest of the year. 7th graders will be reading And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie, and 9th grade will watch West Side Story and it relates to our Romeo and Juliet unit before finishing up with some poetry.

I also attended a techie class with Mr. Jones to help me learn how to send out my blogs to my students when I update this page, something I plan to do a LOT next year!

April 3, 2008


Today in class the 7th graders continued their lessons on commas focusing on commas in a series and commas with two adjectives. They did a worksheet that most classes completed. It's usually and easy-to-understand lesson and will appear on theh CRT's (end of course state exams) in May.

9th graders are listened to the CD of "Romeo and Juliet." They are midway through the play and are answering questions as they go in their pink packets.
