November 2nd-6th, 2009

Hope everyone had a nice, safe, dry Halloween weekend!

I had the chance to see some excellent athletic contests this weekend: congrats to our Tenino Tigers football team on an exciting & outstanding game. And as a volleyball coach, I was thrilled to see the skills of some of our future players at their last volleyball match of the season. Way to go!

The "biggies" this week include:

• Quotation marks, apostrophes, italics, & hyphens TEST ON TUESDAY, NOV. 3RD. PLEASE HELP YOUR STUDENT STUDY FOR THIS. Grades have been sagging lately.
• The quarter ends on Friday, Nov. 6th. THE LAST DAY TO TURN IN EXTRA CREDIT & LATE ASSIGNMENTS TO ME IS WED., NOV. 4TH.
• Science Notebooks will be due on Friday, Nov. 6th. These will be worth 100 points! Please check your student's work over and make sure it is all caught up!
  
• This is the last week of Keyboarding. Next week we will begin Art as our new Exploratory class.
  

Also remember that Wed, Nov. 6th is a "Late Start" day. Sixth graders missed the first one because we were up at Fort Flagler, so you may want to review the home procedures now. On that same day, we will be going bowling, so hopefully your student has turned in the paperwork & money by now.

Have a pleasant week!
