Hello Parents,
I hope everyone had a good weekend. We are into our last week of the unit on Industrial Revolution / Exploitation. Here is what is happening this week:
Monday: homework is to study for Quiz. Two worksheets (Life in the North, and Telling it Like it is).
Tuesday: Quiz
Wednesday: homework is to complete rough drafts for written pieces on timeline assignment (I attached that assignment on Edmodo so if you are not connected as parent, have your son/daughter open their account so you can have access to it)
Thursday: rough drafts due
Friday: by end of class, hand in completed timeline
On a side note.......when we began a review for the quiz, I asked students to get the two worksheets out. Most students went into their binders and found them easily. There were quite a few students who lost one or both. A good activity for home would be to help your son/daughter organize their binders (for those that need it). I was trying to make a point that in order to study for the quiz, they need the completed worksheets to study from. Building good work habits and work ethics are essential for success........this is a theme we will continue to work on especially for those 8th graders moving on to High School next year.
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.
Mr. Burton
