Winter Break is Coming!

In this final week of school for 2019, we will be wrapping up our Renaissance unit as well as the Parts of Speech stations we have been running through.

Report cards come out shortly after we return from break in January. Please check Powerschool to see your grades and ensure everything looks correct. If there are missed assignments, now would be a great time to get them in as they may change some of your overall grades.

I hope you all have a great break, and I can't wait to see you all in the New Year!

Venice is Sinking and more...

Renaissance projects are due ASAP, and should be handed in this week at the latest. Please talk to Shaskin if you need an extension or anything else to help you finish up!

On that note, one of our renaissance cities has begun to flood and may not be around much longer!! Click here to see some images of the flooding happening in Venice recently. We will also be reading an article about this this week.

Also, we will be working on some note-taking skills as we watch a video about Martin Luther and the Reformation
