Today in Humanities, those students who have been reading 100 pages each week received "POWER READING" awards in a little awards ceremony. Congrats to those who received reading awards! Keep up the good work!
Miss Devine discussed the first service project of the year which will take place this Friday during extended advisory (8:30-10:45am). Miss Devine's advisory came up with the idea to have a mini school supply drive to collect supplies for a school in rural Honduras. Ms. Waldman's, Ms. Ramsey's and Ms. Devine's advisories will be participating in this drive and are asked to bring school supply donations by this Friday, September 26th. A letter about the drive was sent home, informing parents and Miss Devine spent some of the class period showing a slide show to discuss her experiences in Honduras. The following items are items of need for the supply boxes we will ship:
For PE class: cones, balls and bases
For the regular classroom: pencils, erasers, rulers, staples, rolls of scotch tape, dry erase markers, stickers, crayons, colored pencils or markers, educational games or flashcards. New and used materials are fine!
The students spent the last half of the class period working on their classroom redesign maps that are due tomorrow. Students will present their maps and their paragraph proposals tomorrow during class. The following criteria are required on the map:
-26 desks, Miss Devine's and Mrs. Cassaro's desks
-certain items in the room cannot be moved: windows, door, bookcases, whiteboards
-the map must include a legend, map scale, map grid, compass and appropriate title
-proposal must be a paragraph to describe why the student's layout should be chosen as the best classroom layout
HOMEWORK: Vocab sentences and finish the redesign map!
