Gonzales Weekly!


Gonzales Weekly
04/29/13

Just three and a half weeks left until the end of the year!

Progress reports go home today.  Please sign and return (don't worry; I'll give them back!) before Friday!

I would like to remind parents again that I will give plenty opportunity for students to raise their grades in science and writing, which are subjects a large number of students are failing at the moment.

I have noticed an increase in student talking during class.  I will be cracking down on behavior.  Please make sure you talk to your child about my expectations in class!

This week in math will be review of unit conversions and probability.  In reading, we will read chapters 7-10 of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.  There will be several at-home reading assignments this week!  In writing, students will write a news article about an event they read in Harry Potter.  In science, I will introduce a final project on the planets to be completed at home. 

In social studies, we will work on matching the capitals to its correct state.

1)     headache
