Welcome Back!! Hope everyone enjoyed Winter Break. It was nice to see a few of you and your parents at conferences. Now it is time to start the last quarter of the school year. Try to keep up with all of your assignments and I will do my best to try to keep the blog updated so you know what is going on in all of your core classes.

Geography

Today we will be starting Chapter 24. The test will be next Friday. There will be a map test over South Asia this Friday the 19th. In the Geography Handout Section, I have posted both the blank version and the completed version of the map for you to use to prepare for the test.

Science

On block day this week we will be finishing up the notes and reviewing for the test. The test over Energy and the Earth is also this Friday the 19th. If you missed it, the review is posted under the Science Handouts section to the right.

English

We are starting to read Romeo and Juliet. Be sure to keep up with the study guide. There won't be any Brain Teasers this week because it is a short week. But be ready to start BT's up again next week. There is also a quiz over the literary terms on Friday. You can use the handout Ms. Sear gave you or you can print a new one from the handouts posted.The quiz will be over both Drama and Poetry Terms.
