Thursday, September 10, 2009

Open House is at 6:30 tonight. The students got a letter last week saying it starts at 7:00, but today they got a letter correcting the time. Open House is not a time for conferencing. If you want to meet with me about specific things having to do with your student, I will have a sign-up list to set up a time for a conference.

The students got their math study guides today. Both grades had time to work on some of the practice problems in class. The math test is Tuesday, September 15.



The science tests are tomorrow. We went over the study guides in class today and also played a review game. All they have to do tonight is study their science materials.

I have been keeping the information on each test to a minimum. Because of this, the tests will be shorter and not worth as many points. I think it is working out for them to be tested every week. If we did not have our tests every week, there would be more for them to have to learn for each test. For the last two weeks, the students have had more than enough time to complete the study guides and study them in class. Not all of the students have been taking advantage of the extra class time to study, but a lot of them have.
