News and Reminders for 8R

Read-a-thon!

The students have done a wonderful job welcoming Miss Rosati into the classroom. She will be teaching Language Arts for the next 2 weeks. They have already been a part of a minor debate during one of her lessons.

Parents! 8R needs your help! We have challenged 8D in our Read-a-thon. The deal is, whomever raises the larger amount of money will get to have the other class as personal assistants for the day. Please encourage the students to do all they can to try and collect pledges for the Read-a-thon. As always, we ask students to do this in a safe manner.

We have had our test in Patterning and Algebra and marks will be returned shortly. Our next unit in Math will focus on Measurement and circles.

Reminder to all students that we are less than a month away from Progress Reports. This is a great time to remember that Learning Skills are important too. Responsibility, organization, independent work, collaboration, self-regulation, and initiative are the six areas of focus.
