January 10th - 14th

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Well, I know that everyone was very relieved this Monday morning to find that school was NOT canceled due to the snow. No one wants to miss out on a moment of Language Arts!

This week, in the eighth grade, we will begin our study of poetry. Students will have the opportunity to jump right in, and start creating their own poetry right away! I can hardly wait to see what these talented minds will come up with!

In the seventh grade, we will be starting our unit: Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl. Students will receive important background information before reading this powerful account of a young life, tragically lost, during the time of the Nazi occupation.

With so much to do, this week will surly fly by!
