Scholastic's ClassroomsCare

Our 7th grade reading classes have joined Peyton and Eli Manning in the race to read 100 books. When students in my classes read 100 books, Scholastic and their partners will donate 1 million books to kids in need. My 5 reading classes are currently racing to see which class will be the first to reach 100 books. Helping Scholastic give books to kids that don't have access to books shows our compassion, which is one of our Shamrock Pride values.

GO KIDS!

End of First Marking Period??

Is it really the time for report cards? Yes it is! On Friday, Nov. 6, we end our first marking period for school year 2009-2010! Students are busy keeping up with work, and turning in any missing work before it's too late.

In reading class, we are finishing our second unit of study. The first unit was "Our Reading Lives" and focused on laying the ground work for how we will work as a reading community. The second unit was focusing on Expository Text and it's features. We have learned about Woodlands and also Wolves in the process. Coming up for next marking period are Unit 3, Analyzing Literature through Short Stories and Unit 4, Inference in Literature and Poetry.
