Let it Snow!!!

Jump to Comments

Welcome to 2008! Let’s hope that the snow slows down a bit so we can get back to work!

The students of Windsor-7 worked very hard before break, and many of them have completed their scientific analysis for River to the Sea. Everyone will need to finish up by the end of the day Thursday, January 3rd. Our next focus will be to get ready for our presentation at City Hall on Wednesday, January 9th. We would love to have you join us at 10 am in the City Hall chambers.

After the 9th, we will move our focus in language arts to media literacy. We will be examining print and tv commercials to discern the propaganda techniques used. This will coincide with work in social studies around the political primaries and the candidates.

Also, the students will be writing their personal narratives over the next couple of weeks. I hope they were able to interview a family members over vacation to add interesting details to their work.

The new year is good time to look at organization habits. One way you can help your child if s/he struggles with keeping organized is to provide some assistance in cleaning out the backpack and setting up folders for each subject to start the new year.

We hope to see many of you on the 9th.

Mrs. MacDonald
