MYSTERY BOOK REPORT DUE NOVEMBER 30

You should be reading or have finished a mystery book for your November book report. It is due Monday, November 30. You can solve what you are to do for the book report by getting the paper with your choices on it from the Seventh Grade crate. You know where to look by now!

Written reports can be turned in at any time. You don't have to wait until the 30th!

Start planning now so figuring out how to get an A won't be a mystery.

Routine Information for Parents and Students

To help plan your homework routine, here is the general plan for each week. There will be other assignments in addition to these based on what areas we are working on in class.

MONDAY:   Test on the previous week's vocabulary unit. 

TUESDAY:  If there is school on Tuesday, figure you have a reading log due.

Vocabulary cards or flippies are also due Tuesdays. 

WEDNESDAY: Spelling lessons are due.

THURSDAY: Sentences for the vocabulary words on the affix unit sheet are due.

FRIDAY: Vocabulary units may be picked up for the next week.

The book report schedule is listed on this page. Book reports are generally due the end of each month. 

Most handouts are in folders in grade level crates where students may get forms or absent work as they need them. "You didn't give it to me" is not an excuse for missing work.

LATE HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS WILL ONLY RECEIVE HALF CREDIT!

I hope this helps in planning around sports, music, theater, family etc. since I believe all of those are critically important. Please email me, call me or stop by Room 7 if you have any questions, concerns, or want help with anything. My email is s.dahnert@loma.k12.ca.us.

I am thrilled with how this year has started and plan on keeping it positive and successful for us all!
