A Nice, Long Weekend

My hope is that you enjoy the next several days with your 8th grader!  My hope is that the small amount of work assigned in class will allow for a nice break after Night of the Notables, and before we begin a new round of essay writing and Science labs. 

This weekend, your student is being asked to finish any Math assignments that may have been assigned by his/her Math teacher (even though we had no Math Tuesday).  Students are also being asked to read for at least 30 minutes every day. 

Additionally, each of us will be starting a Library Research Report after Thanksgiving break.  In order for this to be a successful experience, I am asking that students get to a library as soon as they choose a topic.  Research will be beginning the Monday that we return, so any students without sources will quickly fall behind.  Two sources are all that are necessary, but more are certainly welcomed.

Thanks for helping from home, and have a great Thanksgiving!!
