One More Week til Thanksgiving!

Reminder! Parent Meeting Tuesday, Nov. 17 at 3:45-4:30 pm or Thursday, Nov.19 at 8:15-9:00 am:  We will be talking about our 2 big trips for the year.  The Biosphere2 Tuscon trip Jan 20-22 and our end of the year Zion National Park trip June 6-10.  We will be discuss the educational significance, itineraries, costs, fundraising and chaperone needs. I have only heard from a few parents saying they cannot attend so I expect to see the rest of you at one of the meetings!

Our class is working on advertising our fundraisers.  An ongoing fundraiser is Weekly Recycling.  We also have a Parent Night Out Scheduled for December 4 from 6-9.  7th graders will "kid-sit" for IA families.  It will be an evening of fun, movies, crafts and pizza.  All of the proceeds will go toward our overnight trips.  I will speak more about the fundraisers at our Parent meeting.

We will be wrapping up our project this week and performing the dance piece of the project during the last hour on Friday.  I am not set on the exact time yet but should know by tomorrow.  Both 7th grade classes will be performing for each other as well as for our lower grade buddies.  The entire project itself will be displayed during Exhibition Night in December.

We have our Math Shapes and Designs unit test on Wednesday and vocab quiz #6 on Thursday. For any last minute studying, students were given a study guide that was worked on during class time.  It may help to review it with your student.

I look forward to a busy week and a relaxing Thanksgiving break!
