Hello everyone,
We're down to the last two weeks of the semester. This week we reviewed science for unit 5 and 6. In addition to reviewing science we took the opportunity to also review grammar, writing, and reading comprehension. I think the extra work will hopefully help everyone improve their writing and reading comprehension skills. As I've said before, everyone does well reading and answering questions verbally, but I think that they could all work harder to improve their writing.
Finally, on Thursday we took the unit 6 test for science on biomes and how they all change over time. I'll be sure to post the scores next week....in the mean time, I hope everyone has a nice weekend!

Ellen has done an exceptional job this past semester. She always works hard and is always respectful of everyone in class.

Perry has been doing well. He 's been taking class much more seriously and I really appreciate his effort to behave better in class.

Andy did very well on the reading comprehension work we did this week.

Jessica studied very hard for this weeks science test, I'm happy to see her extra effort!

Raymond is doing better reading , I'd still like to see him put a little more effort into improving his oral reading and pronunciation skills.

Kevin has been fighting with everyone in class. I'm not sure why he has trouble getting along with everyone, but he seems to almost enjoy arguing with everyone including myself. I really hope Kevin can improve his attitude and start respecting his fellow classmates.

Iris did very well this week. I think she has the potential to be a very good writer, hopefully the activities we did this week in class will help her pull her thoughts together and write much better in the future.

Edward did well this week. He always has a lot of creative ideas for short stories.
