Homework - Week of December 10th

Friday, December 14th 

Writing:
Next week, we are going to be writing about an extension of what we are learning in Social Studies: Philosophy.   This weekend, think of a philosophical statement (just a statement) that you would like to write about.  Example: What came first, the chicken or the egg.


Thursday, December 13th

Social Studies:
My homeroom students did not end up taking the Chapter 4 test today.  We will do everything we can for everyone to take it Friday.

Looking forward to seeing the holiday concert tomorrow!


Tuesday, December 11th

Social Studies:
Students should continue to update and organize your notes for Chapter 4.  The test is this Thursday!


Monday, December 10th

General: Many students are not turning their work in on time!  Please check the blog for all assignments.  To be sure I have grades in before progress report cutoff, I need to get grades in by the end of the week.  Bottom line: Please turn in all missing work ASAP!  

Reading:
For those of you that didn't finish in class, here are the questions we will continue discussing this week: 

Respond to questions in your notebook
1) How do you think grownups should treat kids?
2) Should grownups help kids do things correctly, or let them figure things out for themselves?
3) Should grownups ask kids about their feelings or leave kids to themselves?
4) Should grownups get mad when kids do something wrong, or act like nothing has happened?
5) Should grownups have high expectations of kids, or be satisified with whatever effort kids make?
