February 23

Tomorrow is Anti-bullying day (though, everyday should really be anti-bullying day!) and it is a non-uniform day at school. We are encouraging students to design their own anti-bullying shirt, but it is optional. It is also hot lunch!


One of the treats that have been very popular in my past classes have been ice cream sundae parties. The class earns it by getting 5 days (in a month, not row!!!) of EVERYONE getting their homework done. In the past, I've had classes earn this on a monthly basis! This year, we have only gotten three days of everyone handing in the homework (since September!). They have the rest of the week to earn the other two. IF we do not earn it this week, starting in March, I will take note of students who finish their work. If they do so for two weeks leading up to spring break, they will earn the ice cream for themselves. It will be a personal reward instead of a class reward. It's just not fair to the students who have been consistent in handing in work, that they have not earned their prizes.


This is a very busy couple of weeks, as we wrap up our current units for the term. I am giving them work time in class so that it can lessen the amount of work they have to do at home, as they prepare their poems and projects. Please take note of the important due dates!
