Tuesday, March 25th

Students have continued to work on their projects and many are getting close to being done with their presentations and research papers.  On Monday I gave a reading/grammar assessment.  I will give a final assessment next week on the same grammar concepts so students who didn't do well this time will have one more chance to bring up their grades.

Tomorrow we are going on our field trip to the Breman museum and we will return to the school at 1:30pm.  Since it is a kosher facility, we will not be able to eat lunch there.  Please make sure your child has a big breakfast since we will be eating several hours after our normal lunch time.

We read a non-fiction cliffhanger today about Joe Louis and students had to make inferences.  They are working on efficiently finding information and making evidence-based inferences.

On Monday students analyzed American WWII propaganda posters to analyze the symbolic elements and purpose of each.
