While icy weather has kept us out of the classroom, it hasn’t diminished all that we need to accomplish this month. Our vocabulary test will now be on Friday. Students should be studying from their vocab journal each night. We’ll also be conquering more long division, this time involving multi-digit divisors and decimals. We have our Nutcracker walking field trip on the 17th, and our ScienceWorks trip on the 20th. We’re still hoping to present our Gabriel Grub play on the 19th at 1:15. (while The Blacking House will record theirs as a podcast/radio drama). Class party on the 19th? We’ll have to wait and see. We’ll likely have to push our trimester history exam and History Jeopardy into January, but we’ll still have a long division quiz on the 18th. Here’s the math homework for these next two weeks: Thursday, Dec. 12th; Friday, Dec. 13th; Monday, Dec. 16th; Tuesday, Dec. 17th; Wednesday, Dec. 18th; Thursday, Dec. 19th. Finally, to celebrate the holidays, please enjoy our Christmas Carol movie from last year. Incidentally, it’s airing this month on RVTV Ch. 15, our local Public Access channel.
