March 10 Journal

Hi. Today is my last day in the office. Thank you for being such a great classes while I help out while Mrs. Baldwin is sick. Remember, do not get out of your seat. Any student out and walking around will be issued a zero for the day.
8th grade- welcome back. Spend the first 20 minutes in study island and then Ms. Waller will show you how to get started on the persuasive wizard for the "occupation" persuasive.
7th grade- Work in study island for the first half and you should be working on your first or second submission for the "occupation" essay. The essay should be done by Friday.
6th grade- You will work in study island for the first half and then Ms. Waller will introduce the "occupation" essay to you. You need to work on the persuasive wizard.
  1. The first U.S. paper money was issued on this day in 1862. If we did not use money as currency, what could be used in its place? Explain.
  2. March is Save Your Vision Month. Imagine that you could have the eyesight of any animal. Which animal would you choose? Explain.
