Well, we're in the final stretch. May is here and about four weeks until the end of the school year (and my retirement).
6th grade just started their first module where they will work on their own (without the teacher directing their every move).
7th grade is on their third module and should finish on Tuesday or Wednesday depending on which class period they are in.
8th grade is on thier fourth module.
Remember that all work that is unfinished from a previous module can be made up for full credit. Come to open labs to finish.
Thank you to all the parents that supplied food for this weeks "Teacher Appreciation Lunches". They were always something I looked forward to and will miss greatly in my retirement. Thanks so much.

The new trimester started Tuesday, but what a crazy week. The students are taking ISAT tests, so I don't have all of the classes each day. Today, testing took place during 4th, 5th, and 6th periods, so I didn't see any of the kids in those classes. I am trying to keep it all straight.
Students should have turned in their "Yellow Paper" sheet yesterday or today. That paper is really two assignments. The parents had to sign the top part of the assignment and the students had to fill out their "Username" and "Password" on the bottom part.
Some students in 1st period had a hard time logging in today. I am not sure why, but it has a lot to do with the new software that we started using second trimester last year. That created issues with students that had the old software and old passwords. I believe they now all have usernames and passwords that work.
I can't wait for ISAT's to be over and I am sure the students feel the same.

6th Grade: The rockets were due last week. Students took them home and painted them for extra credit. Hopefully the kids were the one's that did the work (under parent supervision).
The rockets have been graded and students will be "fixing" any problems with them Monday and Tuesday. Some of the problems are: parachutes not packed correctly, nose-cones too tight (because of the spray paint leaking inside the body tube), launch lugs (straw looking thing on the side) lining up with the fins......
All of these items are safety issues when we go outside and launch them.
We will launch the rockets third trimester near the end of the year since the weather this time of year isn't too good.
7th and 8th Grade: These students are on their third module and should finish some time next week.
Remember all work can be "Made Up" without penalty if the student comes to open labs. Times are listed on the sheet that was sent home at the beginning of the trimester.

MAP Testing this week. No Applied Tech. work during MAP Testing. We meet in Mr. Little's room on Monday and in Mr. Safranski's room on Tuesday
6th Grade: We are currently working on our Space and Rocketry module. Students are building a rocket from a kit during this module. Students can spray paint their rocket at home once it is completed for extra credit. We strongly encourage them to do the spray painting under parent supervision.
7th & 8th Grade: These students are on their second module and should finish it early next week.
