In brief, Social Studies class took their last SS test for the first trimester on Thursday and got the results on Friday. Feel free to check on Infinite Campus to see how things are going grade-wise. Overall, the results were very positive. We wrapped up America as a World Power and are moving into Chapter 23 World War I to see what conflict could possibly drag in so many countries! Today (Friday Dec 2) we also did an in-class Geography Bee to help determine who will represent Sugarloaf in the school-wide Geography Bee. Results not in yet. NO HW, no tests to study for over the weekend.
In English we wrapped up a group unit on Paragraphing and will be moving into a unit to teach students how to write with specific/precise attention to details. No HW for the weekend.
