Stewart- Social Studies/ Science

Social Studies= No Homework.... however, the geography terms packet will be due soon.  Your child should be on page three.... AT LEAST!!!!

Science- No homework.  We started Weather and watched a video about the difference between Weather and Climate.

And the winner is.......

Ms. Haehl... for most consistent use of our homework website!!  Way to go, Ms. H!

I apologize for not getting going on this. When no homework is given I forget to enter any information at all.  In Social Studies we have been busy with our Geography Terms (Land forms)  packet. Today we are going to go over a worksheet that is an introduction to What a Historian Does. Next week we will begin our Pre-History unit.

In Stewart Science we have worked on Dependent and Independent Variables and will be starting on our major question of the Fall semester: What is Weather? We will explore different instruments that meteorologists use and some of the why and how weather and climate affect our lives.

Thank you for checking in. 

ELA and Haehl Science

ELA- Today we did a second read of The Ravine and completed a plot element map as we read. Whatever they didn't finish of the plot element map was the homework they needed to complete. If they checked out a book, please remind them to return them tomorrow. Thanks!

Haehl science: We finished our paper column experiment. If they didn't finish their conclusion, they need to complete it as homework.

Homeroom: I also passed out a student/parent/teacher/admin compact that outlines what is expected from each party. Please read over and sign. Thank you!

Haehl Update

Today did not go as planned.. Not as much got done as I had hoped... So as far as notebook check on Monday, I will be checking pages 7-11. They need to be complete.

Homeroom- We ran out of time with our science project so we did not get to passing out all of the needed papers. I will get those to them on Monday. I am sorry for the confusion!

ELA and Haehl's Science

I am so sorry for the delay in sharing yesterday's homework! We had an awesome curriculum night full of information for our wonderful parents. If you were unable to attend we will be sending home a few things today that you will want to get from your student, so please ask them about those! If you have any questions about any of the things we send home, please feel free to ask.

Yesterday, there was not any homework for ELA or Haehl's science since we finished it in class and we had curriculum night, which made for a late evening already.

There is no homework tonight either unless they need to make up work from this week. I will be doing notebook checks on Monday. This is a grade. They should have pages 7-12 complete by then (both ELA and Science for Haehl's homeroom). Most of this has been done in class so if they were here everyday, it should be done or close to done already :)

Next week we will be continuing with The Ravine, taking a deeper look into the plot development and how the plot effects the character's development. In science, we will be jumping into the "Weather and Water" FOSS kit which explores the why and how behind water. This unit will continue throughout the semester.

As always, if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Thank you and have a fantastic weekend!

ELA Homework- No science homework for Haehl HR

Today we previewed and then started reading the story The  Ravine. They asked 3 questions about the story before we read, and as we read they were to be answering the questions we asked. We did not have enough time to check out questions after reading one of the pages. So they are to review the questions they wrote and see if they can answer any of their questions. They may not be able to answer all of them since we did not finish the story yet.

Tomorrow we have RI pre-testing to find out their lexile levels. Therefore there will not be homework tomorrow for ELA class.

Thanks for your continued support,
