Happy Spring Break!!! I am just giving you the heads up for the next 6 weeks. This week of course is all relaxation. Then, we start 4 weeks of INTENSIVE review and preparation for the CSTs which will be given the last week of April. When I say intensive, I mean be ready to come to school everyday and be prepared to work very hard over the next month. I will probably give a little more homework than normal and expect to have some weekend assignments. I have not done this all year and that is because I save it for now:) I need your commitment to demonstrating how hard we have worked all year. I would like to encourage you to use LEARNING UPRADE and to set your goal to reaching level 60 before CSTs. This is going to be a real challenge for some of you who have just cruised along in Learning Upgrade. But, I am requiring you to complete 4 sections a week for a required graded assignment. Also, anything beyond the 4 sections a week will earn you 10 TEST points extra credit. Remember, you can use your account and do Learning Upgrade at home and there are after school computer lab days (check with me) that can be arranged. I know the 4 sections can be achieved during our computer lab time. The 6th week is CSTs. I will obviously update you before then.
Enjoy your break!

End of 3rd QTR
Well...it is here but it is definitely not over. I want to give you a heads up regarding the final week.
* Monday will be our science benchmark and our final lesson for chapter 11. We will also be reviewing math and science. This is our final day for completing all Learning Upgrade Gold Ribbons. Students should still work on Learning Upgrade but all ribbons achieved will go toward 4th quarter. We have so many lessons to complete before the the end of April.
* Tuesday will be our science benchmark (2 parts). Also, our science projects are due and we will take a math quiz on the final 2 sections of chapter 11.
* Wednesday will be the Algebra benchmark (part 1), more review, and demonstrations of our science projects.
* Thursday will be Algebra benchmark (part 2) and more science demonstrations.
* Friday will be a minimum day and we will take a pre-star assessment so I can determine each student's strengths and weaknesses. This will help me plan our STAR review.
* Then it is spring break and we all really need it:)
