Homework Rules! Weeks of 9/26-10/1

Hi all you Smarties!

This is a short week as we have staff development here at Wells on Thursday and Friday. So homework is due on WEDNESDAY of this week.

The progress period ended today (Friday) and grades are due on Tuesday. Printed grade checks will go home via US mail on Thursday.

On Wednesday of this week I will post the general homework for the month of October. I have split the PM core into P1 and P2. They will sometimes be doing the same work, and sometimes be doing different work, depending on the topics at hand and the strengths and weaknesses of the students.

So without further ado...

Grade 8's:
AM History:
Definitions and questions- get them off of the 8th grade materials section of the teacherweb site.
Test fix: the results as well as "how to fix a test" are on the website.

Hot Sheet A5: Character Analysis essay single draft on "Raymond's Run"

PM History:

Reading Log


Grade 7's:
No Homework this week.
Test fix for those interested in getting a better grade. Your results are posted in the 7th grade tab of the website. Look at your results and follow the directions in the "how to fix a test document".

Grade 7's are going to be starting to look at the Muslim Empires next!

And on that topic, a very happy and festive Eid to you all!! Wednesday marks the holiday of Eid, which marks the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. For those who celebrated, I hope you had a reflective and enlightening Ramadan, and a great Eid party on Wednesday!

Have a great week!
