Currently the 9/10 grade students are working hard to meet their weekly goals. If everyone reaches this accomplishment, a pizza lunch will be the celebration. We are reading the book Unwind by Neal Schusterman. The story follows three teens, Connor, Risa, and Lev, as they escape the fate of being unwound. In U.S. History, we are learning about the development of big industry in the U.S. lead by Carnegie and Rockerfeller. In English, the students are brushing up on their writing skills with journaling paragraphs. Eventually, the freshmen will begin writing different types of paragraphs and essays while the sophomores will start writing about their lives.
Look for a letter to set up parent teacher conferences for first quarter. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me. The classroom phone is 715-723-5542 ext. 6407. My email is wackwijj@chipfalls.k12.wi.us and I am always checking it even at night and on the weekends.
The picture of Space Mountain is a reminder of my favorite ride at Disney World.
