Hello!

Today all classes took the final assessment for Make a Difference, the 6th grade anti-bullying unit. My goal was to have student learn strategies that will help them become upstanders for others and for themselves. They now have a tool box of ideas to reach into when they see or experience bullying...and I hope they will rarely have to use it.

We went to the IMC to return and check out books.

Tomorrow is "Hat Day," and it is for a good cause! Wear a hat and bring a dollar to help find a cure for cancer.

Competitive spellers wanted! An informational meeting will be held tomorrow morning at 8:30 am in my room, #217, for Spell Bowl information. My DMS team is a four-time national championship team, so I need another fantastic team this year!!

H/W: If you feel you didn't get far enough in your narrative "Apology" poem, please work on that at home for tomorrow. We will be doing peer edits tomorrow. Remember to follow the order of the prewrite.

See you on Friday! Yay!
