Please send picutres of your student's grandparents, perferably with you student if possible, to school as soon as is possible. Please make sure to label them so I can get them back to you. Thanks!

It took me a few hours but I did figure out the technical glitch with our geography test that we took yesterday. As usual, it was user error. I did have to have the students take the geography test again, but it got them out of having an assignment today. The science test went off without a hitch. The rest of the day was a bit unusual as well. We had our pictures taken today and we got a little long on our current events class, but in the end we got done with what we needed to.

Hey there, how ya doing? We are doing ok. The students are trying to adjust to a new teacher and a new way of doing things and I am adjusting to the abilities of a new group of kids. We took our first geography test today. Due to a technical issue, I don't have the grades for those yet, but I hope they went well. We also talked about metaphors and looked at a few of Shakespeare's. We also reviewed how to do the question and answer flow for English.

Hey, welcome back! Hopefully by now you have gotten your invitation to make an account on Engrade. This is what 7th and 8th are trying out for grades this year. It gives you the chance to check in anytime and see how your student is doing. If you didn't get your email invite or are having issues, please let me know.

I sent home a slip today regarding our upcoming field trip. The trip isn't until the 20th of October (NOT THE 10TH THAT WAS A TYPO) for a while but I need to get the exact number of tickets sent to the PAC sooner rather than later. I also need to make sure that we have enough drivers. If you would like to drive us and see Macbeth live please let me know!

Today we talked about latitude and longitude, sequences, and culture. We even talked about mental health.

Happy First Day of School! Enough planning already, let's do some learning!

We had a great opening devotion by Mr. Zunker today reminding us that when we hurt each other, we hurt Jesus. We pray that we serve each other in love this year and always.

We took a look at our first math lesson of the year which was mostly review. We looked at why people live where they do. We got rained out for soccer so we did some basketball instead. We also learned some jingles and learned about landforms. We ended the day discussion why we are going to study Shakespeare and started listening to The Outsiders.
