What We’re Learning

English-We’re always working on our writing! Some students are putting their writing skills to the test as they create songs for our class science fair theme.

Science-students should be working on science projects. Student displays are due 2/27.

Research Report Information

Class Requests: stop watches

Homework Alerts: Students are working on RESPONSIBILITY. Part of their job as students is to record, do, and turn in homework on time. If HW is not turned in on time, the student will receive a Homework Alert that must be signed by a parent and turned in with the late assignment.

Late Work Policy: Work that is 1 day late loses 25%. Work that is 2 days late loses 50%. Work that is 3 days late loses 75%. Work that is not turned in by the end of the 3rd day is a zero in the gradebook. Any late work must be accompanied by a Homework Alert to receive credit.

Under 80 Test Correction Policy: Students may make corrections (rewritten on separate paper) to earn back half the points on any graded assignment 80 or below. Corrections are due the next school day.
