Week ONE is DONE!

 


Hi, 6th and 8th grade parents!


I'm loving spending time with your sweet students!!! We've gotten so much done even in this short time together.

Next week we will start reading The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe in the 6th grade, and The Last Battle  in 8th grade. Please be sure your student has these books so we can begin them on Wednesday. Books may be downloaded on a tablet or laptop, or students may use a physical copy of the book. Students may not use cell phones in class, and they may not have phones out in class.

All of our vocabulary is on a website called Quizlet. Please have your child join our class by clicking on this link: https://quizlet.com/join/P7BRFEtkA. 

My eighth graders are learning 5 SAT words per week . SAT quizzes are each Friday. Here is the list of words we are learning: https://www.majortests.com/word-lists/word-list-01.pdf

Due 8/21 in 6th and 8th grades:

1. Signed syllabus (seated students only)

2. Introduction (2 paragraphs for 6th graders, 3 paragraphs for 8th graders)

3. Procedure test

Next Thursday - 8th grade - Last Battle Vocab test

Today we shall begin the Cornell Note journey! This note taking system will make life easier for your students as they proceed through school. 

May God bless you . Please let me know if I can help you in any way.

Blessings, 

Kelley Desjarlais
