History Projects

The Montana History project selection sheets came home today. They are due back tomorrow with your child's selected project. Models were shown from Mrs. Hankin's class of almost all of the selections. Students were told they may not use/steal their ideas and need to come up with their own. I am encouraging all students to select option 8, come up with your own project. What about a report using technology??? Projects are due on Tuesday, Nov. 24th at 8:25 am. There will be NO exceptions. If you know your child will be out on that half day, please have them bring it in before that date to share. Student's should NOT bring projects in early unless they will be absent that Tuesday. I have NO room to store them.

I did not send home the work packets...sigh...tomorrow!
PTA meeting tonight at 6:30. Show up and earn $500 fake dollars for your child. Go Bitterroot!

Be on the lookout...

Hi! Happy Monday to you all!

Tomorrow two things will be coming home with your child.

1. Montana History Project list and requirements. Your child will need to select ONE project off the list, write it on the provided form, and return it to me by Wednesday. The projects will be due next Tuesday. Please encourage your child to begin this right away and NOT wait until the last minute. Students have a Montana History Book that can help them obtain research needed or may use the internet.
2. A work packet. The packet consists of a bunch of reading comprehension papers that I did not use over the past week or two. When doing these activities in class, I require them to hi-light where they find the answers in the text. This teaches them the strategy of looking back in the text for the answers. Use them if you want or how you want. You may want to use them over Thanksgiving break??

Have a GR-8 night!
