Ahh what happened to all my nice cool weather? Thankfully it should cool off again by the end of the week. Don't worry, no snow is forecast. Not yet anyway.

We are over halfway done with the quarter. If you haven't checked lately, have a peek at the grades on Engrade. I also added how many AR points your student had as of yesterday. We are shooting to have those all in by May 17th! We have many assignments due tomorrow, but most of them were assigned Monday if not before, so hopefully your student has been working on them already. I saw many students getting various things done during our study period today.

In science we are talking about the Earth and moon system. We talked about how the tilt of the Earth creates seasons, not the distance the Earth is from the sun. (We are actually closest during January!) In geography we talked a bit about life in the Koreas. What a contrast between North and South! We worked at translating English into Mathish in math class. You can't solve the problem if you don't know what the problem is. We also corrected the tests. I noticed many students getting problems wrong because they multiplied incorrectly. If you get the time, review the multiplication tables with your students. (Fun in the car!) There were also many subtracting and adding computation errors.
