Happy November!
We are officially done with Unit 1 and starting Unit 2 which is all about perimeter and area of shapes. This is a very fun and short unit. Students will (potentially) be taking the Unit Test on Wednesday, November 21st. I say potentially because I will be out of town (in Spain) the week of Thanksgiving and the Monday after. This unit is mostly review with some new "twists" to finding area of figures. I feel very confident that it will be successful as long as everyone is on-task and learning even while I am away.
We are having our first Reward Day on Friday, November 16th. Students will be able to go on reward day if they meet the following requirements for Math Class:
- No missing tests/quizzes.
- Less than 3 missing assignments.
- Passing class with a C or above.
- No referrals since Mid-Terms.
Each class will have different requirements. The teacher will talk to the students about these during class.
FREE PIZZA from CHRIS & ROB'S!!!
*Students have an awesome opportunity to earn a free pizza from Chris & Rob's. We have over 1,000 tickets to give to individuals who are caught doing a "good deed" or showing an IB Characteristic. The pass gives them a free individual pizza (cheese or pepperoni) with no obligation to purchase anything else.
Gingerbread Houses!
Hopefully the information about Gingerbread Houses has made it home in last weeks Friday folder. We are going to start collecting "seed money" to get us started. We are also asking for volunteers to help with cooking/decorating days. If you have any questions, please contact me!
