I think Spring is here! The weather was great this weekend. Time to enjoy the great outdoors-after your homework is done!! Here is what's going on this week for your team classes.

Geography

On Monday, Mr. Livingston handed out a Southeast Asia map. The test will be next week. I'll post the exact date when I know. The map is posted towards the bottom of the geography handout section. Tuesday he will hand out the Chapter 27 study guide. That test will be some time next week. It sounds like you are getting a break from geography tests this week.

English

We are moving on to Act III in Romeo and Juliet. Ms. Sear will hand out the Act III study guide and vocabulary on Monday. Remember your research paper will be due Friday, April 16th. You will get some time in class to work on those during block day. The "Mad Mercutio" worksheet you got on block day will be due Monday, April 19th.

Science

We are still studying waves in science. Make sure you are working on your wave blocker. You will present it on Block Day. This is a very important project that is worth one test grade. So if your a little worried about your current grade in science, what a great opportunity to help improve it. If you have questions, be sure to ask Mr. Hess. Also, remember that if you plan to work with a partner, you have to let Mr. Hess know by today!
