Denali Science School Update!! - When I got to Denali to pay the cost for our class, I discovered the price they charged and what they had listed in the email packet they sent to me were not the same.  This is good news!  It was actually quite a bit cheaper, which means you will be getting a refund!  When Mrs. Sandvik gets back, we will work on getting a refund of $23 to each of you.

Secondly, Alaska Geographic was able to get me receipts for those who wish to submit for reimbursement from Mat Su Central School.  Please note that I couch the charge for the parent chaperones into the student fees, so the amount you can actually be reimbursed for is just the student fees.  This is the cost that is reflected on each receipt. If you have any questions about this, please feel free to ask me.

Bible:

No Memory Verse this week
We talked about Romans 12, and how to deal with people who disagree with us.

Language Arts: Writing

We began our brainstorming for our Persuasive Essays.  Each student was to choose a topic and then begin to brainstorm arguments in support of their topic.  Only two students did not get a topic chosen.

Social Studies:

Today and tomorrow are the last in class days for doing research on our Revolutionary War topics for our groups.  Students are still allowed and encouraged to do research at home if need be.  Monday, we will be starting

Language Arts: Reading

We read a chapter and a half out of Little Britches.  I alternate having the students practice their reading skills and listening for enjoyment, and today we listened for the pure enjoyment of the story.

Math:

Lesson 20:  All letters and numbers.

7 times tables today
