The last full week of school....

Wow -- it's really hard to believe that this year is almost over.  It has been an amazing year.  But we still have some work to wrap up!

6th grade:  They are finishing their M.A.R.E. island narratives this week.  We will be hanging them up on our wall.

7th grade: They are sharing their M.A.R.E. coral reef animal story books with they younger grades this week.

8th grade:  They are finishing their research papers (due Tuesday), and starting their speeches for their graduation this week.

Week of June 3rd.... WHAT?? JUNE??? No WAY!

Cheese and crackers!!!!  It's the last month of the school year already!!!

Anyways, I'll be on another trip this week -- learning about our nation's capitol along with our 8th graders.  It'll be bitter sweet as it will be fun but also one of the last experiences we'll have together as a group, for they are moving on to high school next year. 

6th Grade:  We are finishing our island narratives and drawing a "book cover" this week.

7th Grade:  We are finishing our final drafts of our coral reef animal children's book this week.

8th Grade:  The due date of the research paper has been extended to June 11th.

Two more weeks of work left ladies and gents!  Finish strong!
