Dear Parents and Caregivers,
This Friday we have a Valentines Dance. Permission slips
were sent home last Friday. Friends and siblings are welcome with pre-approval.
In science we are moving into molecules and compounds. In
social studies, students wrote some beautiful formal outlines of their lessons.
This week we will be comparing and contrasting life between Athens and Sparta
and discussing which one is most appealing for students.
There was nearly a brawl last week as students debated
Odysseus' ethics in Black Ships Before Troy but I calmed them down just
in time. We will finish the book this week and start our final project next
week on this reading unit.
For many, spelling tests have been somewhat low. Encourage your
student to study throughout the week or, better yet, give them some practice
tests before Friday.

The trimester ends at the end of this month and we will be
signing students up for new electives. If you or anyone you know are willing to
teach an elective on Thursday afternoons for one hour for approximately ten
weeks, please let me know. Students and staff are looking to find teachers for
cooking, music, dance, debate, and any kind of sport, or art. Feel free to
contact me with questions or interest.
Thank you and take care,
