Sunday, November 29th

Hello all,

I hope that you have had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday! It has certainly flown by for me.

We will have a very busy next three weeks, especially 7th grade. Both 6th and 7th grade will be continuing in Chapter 5 over the next week, which covers fractions. 6th graders could all use extra practice adding and subtracting fractions and mixed numbers. 6th grade we will begin multiplying and dividing fractions and mixed numbers this week. Both classes will receive spirals on Tuesday, December 1st which will be due Tuesday, December 8th.

7th grade will receive study guides on Wednesday, December 2nd. There are three different due dates for the study guide which is broken into three sections. You are welcome to complete these ahead of time. Answers will be given on Wednesday December 9th.

Have a wonderful week!

Mrs. Serpas

Week of 11/02-09- 11/06/09

Hello all,

I hope you have enjoyed this weekend!

A quick note about the upcoming week. I will not be at school on Tuesday; I will be attending a professional development conference at the Diocese. Spirals will still be collected at the BEGINNING of class on Tuesday, so don't forget to turn yours in.

6th grade did a great job last week helping Ms. Guelfo's class with their scarecrow glyphs. I will post more information and some pictures this week. One of the sixth graders left their reading glasses in Ms. Guelfo's classroom on Thursday, let me know if you are missing your pair.

6th & 7th grade-we are continuing work in Chapter 4.

6th grade- Chapter 4 Test Wednesday, November 11th.

7th grade- Chapter 4 Test is Wednesday, November 11th.

Reminder-keep up with your homework and spirals! Many of you are starting to slip a little bit in this area, and this will hurt your grade. To help you get back on track, I will be sending home a note for every missed homework/spiral rather than waiting on you to miss three missed assignments. I hope that this will help you get back in the routine of getting work turned in.

Have a great week and let me know if you have any questions!

Some general information:
*All school mass this Friday, parents are welcome to attend.
*Parish fair is this weekend!!!
*Progress reports go out next week! (Yes, already!)
