In The Muppet Movie they say, "Life's like a movie, write your own ending." As we finish the school year you have a chance to write your own ending. First study hard for your final, that is in your own hands. Your final will be just vocabulary. The parts of your final will be just like the vocabulary packets you have used all year: critical reading, sentence completion, and analogies. You will have 200 questions worth 800 points, and you will need a number two pencil. Write your own ending to this semester. What about S.S. Reading points - do you have them all? Again you have control.

Activities for week eighteen 2nd semester 6/6 - 6/ 10 - 2016

Mark Twain said, "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." This is the last week before finals please make sure you are reviewing all your vocabulary. Do you know where you stand in this class? I am still here everyday at 7 am, and break to help you or answer any questions you may have. ***This Monday I will be in our classroom for you to make up Reading Points or Tests at 7:15 am. ***
