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.
