Periods 2 and 3: Thursday
Periods 4 and 5: Friday
 
Homework: The questions at the end of the Rocky Shores Packet are due Monday April 11th!!

STEWART Math and Social Studies

Math: We are working in our Buckle Down AIMS preparation books.  This is all review material.  Your child needs to make sure that they bring the book with them to class each day.
 
Social Studies:  We will begin working on our ABC Book of Early India and China on Thursday.  Your child needs to bring colored pencils to class.  (my supply has dwindled)
FYI:  This 'book' will count as a TEST grade as it involves an understanding of key concepts and vocabulary.  Just because it looks like an 'artsy' project does not mean it isn't a valuable representation of knowledge. (non-linguistic representation)
 
Please stress to your child the importance of putting effort and thought into their 'book'.
