Dear Parents and Families,
As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday, we wanted to share a brief update on what our middle school students are learning during this short week:
Math: Students are reviewing algebraic expressions, practicing slopes, and studying line regression and residuals before the breaks.
English/Language Arts: This week, students are exploring themes within multiple texts, and comparing them to texts written during similar time periods. Our 8th graders will begin their novel study on The Outsiders.
Science: Students are learning about ecosystems and how living organisms interact within their environments. They will also finish their study on pure substances, acids, bases, and salts.
Social Studies: We’re focusing on the Founding Fathers, Bill of Rights, the voting process, and law studies.
We hope that you and your family have a restful and joyful Thanksgiving holiday!
