Weekly Message for Week of May 17th-May 21st

Posted: May 17, 2010

I am very excited for this week!  I have lots of fun things planned, starting today with our Health class experiment.  I am going to show the students the fat in a Big Mac.  Stay tuned for some pictures. As well, the students are starting to present many incredible Ancient China projects.  I am very pleased with the quality of presentations that I have received thus far, and am looking forward to seeing many more this week.  Just a reminder that these projects are due the first of June, so there are only two weeks left to work on them. It is sad that we do not have Mr. Case here with us this week, but the class is adjusting well to me again. It is our end of unit Science test on Wednesday, and today I will be giving the students their study notes for this unit.  I am confident that they will all do well on the test, as our hands-on-activites that we do in class are sticking with them.  I am starting our Ancient Greece unit in Social Studies and this will be our last unit for the rest of the year.  I am very anxious to start the baseball unit in Phys. Ed with the students, as to me there is no other sport (besides gymnastics) that is this fun!!! I am looking forward to being in the class full-time with my students again this week and getting lots of work done as we only have 6 weeks of school left before we end our journey together.  Enjoy the sunshine everyone, it is going to be a GREAT week!!!
