A letter was sent home last week about activities planned by our grade level for the last two weeks of school.  We are asking each child to contribute $3 to help pay for some of the activities. We also hope some parents give even more, so all students can be included. If you have not seen the letter I have added it to the end of these plans. This letter basically tells you what will happen the last weekof the school year, thus I will NOT be sending out a message next week.

I appeciate having had the honor of teaching your child this year and wish them well next year in 8th grade.

This week I will see all of my students for 45 minutes each day.

Tuesday, May 27 Wear Red, White, and Blue

Tuesday's schedule differs for each team:

Starfish Team: Hamze, Hunt, Brook Homerooms will have a quiz.  The students were given a study guide last week and the flashcards remain on this website. Ms. Hunt's homeroom also needs to turn in their social studies folders to me on Tuesday.  They were given a list of all of the work that will be graded in their folder last week. I will return them on Wednesday.

Dolphin Team: Sauls, Clark, Perry Homerooms. I will return their graded folders and we will continue our study of East Asia by examining the economies of the region (Chapter 17, Section 3).  The students will complete worksheet 61 which I will grade at the end of class before dismissal.

Some students will be retaking the End of Grade test in mathematics.  If they miss the quiz, they will take the quiz on Wednesday.

Wednesday, May 28 Wear Wacky-Tacky Day

My homeroom will be playing kickball during homeroom and 1st period.

The rest of my classes will be reading Chapter 17, Section 5 (Establishing Modern Japan) and completing notes on Worksheet 63.

Thursday, May 29 Wear Favorite college day shirt

I will ask students to bring in thier social studies textbook starting today.

All classes will take a cumulative test over the unit on East Asia.  There are 25 multiple choice questions.  This will be an open NOTEBOOK test and will count for 20% of their grade.  I expect this test will improve almost all of the students grades in my class. Key to success is to have the folder with them on Thursday and to have it well organized.

Friday, May 30 School Spirit Day (Eppes blue and white)

Today I plan to have some activities to complement our study on East Asia.  I plan to demonstrate how to fold an origami (Japanese paper folding) sumo wrestler.  The students then can compete against one another during my classes on Friday and anytime during next week when we are together.

Dear Parents,

 

The 7th grade teachers are planning many activities for the last week of school.  Most activities are open to all students. We need parents to help us with Field Day and the Luau. Please indicate on the attached sheet how you might be able to help us with these events.

Media Center books are due this Friday (5/23).  Next week teachers will begin to collect textbooks, so be sure all textbooks are returned to school.

We have designated a theme for each day and hope that the students will participate by dressing as follows:  5/27 (Memorial: Red, White, and Blue), 5/28 (Wacky Tacky Day), 5/29 (College Day), 5/30 (School Spirit Day), 6/2 (Field Day-wear your homeroom color), 6/3 (Twin Day), 6/4 (Tropical Luau Day), 6/5 (Best dress for Awards). Of course, all clothing must meet the PCS dress code.

Next week (5/27 to 5/30) homerooms will be playing the first round of a kickball tournament.

 

Monday, June 2  Field Day (8:30-11:30)

Students will participate by homeroom in various events on the Eppes playing fields.

 

Tuesday, June 3  EOG Rewards Day

Yearbook signing between 11:00 and 11:30

Picnic on the field (hotdogs, chips, drinks) for students who make progress on the EOG.

 

Wednesday, June 4 Luau Day (eligible students will get written notice)

This is a reward for students who met their AR (Accelerated Reader) goal for this 9 weeks grading period.  This activity involves games and crafts in classrooms .We need parents from 9:30 to 11:30 and 12:20 to3:30.  You need only volunteer for as little as one hour at a time. A parent who can coordinate the volunteers would be great!

 

Thursday, June 5  Awards Day

7th grade awards ceremony begins at10:15 in the gym (yes, it is air conditioned).

We expect this to last about one hour. 

 

Friday, June 6 Final Day

Students will be dismissed after lunch is served. Eighth grade has their awards ceremony, but 7th graders are not invited unless a parent is present to sit with them during the program.

 

Report cards are mailed home June 10 to all students who have no fines (missing books from the Media Center or textbooks)

 

We are collecting $3.00 per student (non-refundable) to try to cover some of our expenses of these events. Additional donations are welcomed to sponsor other students.
