The students had a lot of fun. Also thank you to Cindy Hunt for helping us out. SPECIAL RECOGNITIONS: October's Student Hero: Megan was last month's hero in our class. She has never missed a day of school or been tardy. Megan excels in her studies and participates in class. She turns assignments in on time and does her best in school work. She also helps out those around her. Thank you Megan for being a great example of an Odyssey Hero. I would also like to recognize Shelby Graves for being such a great peer buddy to students around her. She is always willing to help out students who are struggling. This week we are begin our road to the American Revolution! ( see the history page for more details). I am really excited about this History unit. Students will be learning abour our nation'birth, our founding fathers, The Constitution, Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights, Emancipation Proclamation, various acts such as the Stamp Act and Townsend Act, Boston Massacre, Boston Tea Party, French and Indian War and so forth. This unit will take about 4 weeks and will include many activities that will enhance your student's learning and help them appreciate the wonderful country in which we live and the many sacrifices that were made for our freedoms. Students will be required to memorize parts of the Declaration of Independence and the Preamble to the Constitution. We will practice in class, but they will also be required to practice at home.

HOMEWORK FOLDERS: Students now have homework folders. They have pages in it for parents to sign each day. If a student has homework it will be placed in the pockets of this homework folder so it is easily accessible. Please check their folders each day and sign it even if there is no homework. Students will receive points toward the prize box or a treat each Monday, if all days have been signed. Donations: Late work/Homework Policy: Please make sure you are familiar with these policies. They are the school's policies as well. On this website, you may click any tab above to see what is happening in each subject.
