Week 1/11/2021-1/14/2021

 Dear parents,


We want to apologize for missing last week's newsletter.  Both Mr. Behmer and Mrs. McFarland were sick and needed to self-quarantine.  Mr. Behmer went back to school on Thursday and Mrs. McFarland will be back this Monday. 

English Class:

It was good to be back in English class after this long break. The students are currently learning about percentages in math class and will have a test in this area by the end of next week. Since I have been missing I will offer retakes and many opportunities for the students to improve in math over the next few weeks.

In language arts they will begin a create a country project and will be starting a new journey's unit after finishing Percy Jackson. We will try to start the second Percy Jackson book depending on the availability for students. 

Also I have been helping with STEM Fair, but please remind students it is vital to look into canvas for stem fair information as well.

Chinese:

I have scheduled two zoom meetings today.  One is 11:15-11:45 for Blue class, and 12:00-12:30 for red class.  When I wrote it done on the Canvas 1/7/2021, I wanted to give students an opportunity to be responsible for their learning, so I didn't email the zoom meeting time to parents yesterday. Unfortunately we were missing many students and will need to discuss this.

STEM FAIR project is worth 200 points due dates:

Canvas STEP 3 and 4 due 1/15/2021

Canvas STEP 5 and 6 due 1/20/2021

Canvas STEP 7 and 8 due 2/7/2021

Canvas STEP 9 and 10 due 2/11/2021
