Civics
Sept. 20, 2017 NOTE: Given the amount of work in all the section reviews as well as the questions about the various parts of the Constitution, we will NOT require that students complete anything but the Chapter Review questions this week. In addition, for the remainder of the semester students need not answer the Section Review questions as required homework, although reading and thinking through those questions will prove helpful in the long run. The only required assignments will be the Chapter Review questions. The Syllabus below has been modified to reflect these changes. Civics Fall 2017 Steve Crampton In this class, we will be studying the foundations of…

Swimming Creatures
Your child should have the Test for Chapter 1 in his/her notebook. I recommend taking it before starting the next chapter. But it’s up to you. You may also decide if you would like it to be open book or not. I didn’t realize we had so many with learning disabilities and/or difficulty spelling. I will try to make the future tests include more multiple choice, or at least have a word bank. Don’t stress if this one seems too hard for your child. Please turn in the tests on Friday. This will keep us moving along at a good pace. Also, begin reading Whales (p. 19-27). The memory verse…

1st and 2nd Grade Science
Hi Parents! My goal for this class is to take a topic covered in the reading and do a craft with them. I will read excerpts to them and ask them questions about the reading as we do the crafts. Occasionally I have an experiment for them to do at home because it is not feasible for us to do in the classroom. If the assignment comes from the notebook, I will either copy it or take a photo of it with my phone and text it to you. I did not assign any other work except for a project later in the year for them to do at home.…

7th & 8th grade Science
Hi Parents! I sent out a syllabus in a calendar form with suggested daily assignments. I will be checking the lab reports and study guides as a part of their grade. Please grade (or have them grade) their study guides with a red pen prior to coming to class. This is essential to them making a good grade on the tests. I will let you know of any changes to the schedule. In October, we are doing back to back chapters one week. All other chapters will take two weeks to cover. Once I gauge how well the kids are keeping up, I will throw in an additional group project.…

Swimming Creatures
We had a great class on Friday. The kids were very well behaved, quite cooperative, and ready to learn. Encourage them on! This week’s assignment is listed in the syllabus, which you have in your book, or the link to an online syllabus is listed prior to this post. Just to make sure we are all on the same week, you should finish reading the first chapter this week. On Friday, I will review this chapter and send home the test from Lesson 1. I recommend trying to do the test without the book, but if you see it is too challenging, feel free to make it open book. I…
