The end of the marking period and the end of the first semester is fast approaching.  Any late work or missing assignments will become zeros on January 18th.

Mid-term exams will be given January 16, 17, and 18.  Students will be dismissed at 1:45 on the 17th and 18th.

Spelling: Homework is due Thursday at the beginning of the hour.  This week we are focusing on synonyms, antonyms, and homonyms.  Spelling has a very different format this week.

Reading: Students were assigned the folk tale "Breaker's Bridge". By tomorrow, they need to be able to identify the theme, the character traits, and examples of cause/effect.
