Science-
This week we will work on the Plants packet. The test for this packet will cover the whole packet rather than being broken down into two tests. Students will receive a more detailed than usual test format later this week. I am also giving "hints" while checking in class. Homework each night is to study! The Endocrine System test will no go home with STP's tomorrow as I still have two people who need to make it up. I will send it home as soon as I can.

English-
Spiral #16 is due Friday. PLEASE check you child's work before they turn it in. Recent scores indicate that they are not coming to you....so please ask them about it!
Tuesday and Wednesday we will work on the last two rough draft paragraphs for the research paper. Rough draft will come home at the end of the week to by typed or neatly handwritten. Please DO NOT change anything in your child's paper. I know the work might not be up to your standards, but please remember this is the first time they have done this. I have made corrections/suggestions on all rough drafts. These are the only changes that should be made on the final draft. Please e-mail me if you have any questions about this.
