Hey everyone!
I can't believe this will be our last full week of school together :(
As some of you have already heard, this will be my last year teaching at New Riegel. I am going to be heading overseas to teach English in either Korea or Japan (I will keep you updated with more specific details soon!). Though I am extremely excited about this next chapter in my life, I am also extremely sad to be leaving the amazing people I have met while at New Riegel--I will miss ALL of my students and colleagues :(
I will be creating another blog or site that I will keep updated while abroad with pictures and stories. When I do this, I will post the link on this blog.
Ok, to stop focusing on the future and focus on what's going on now...check out the information below to see what each class will be doing this week:
7th grade
This week, the 7th graders will be finishing and presenting their persuasive projects in which they created an invention, designed a new business, etc. They will be presenting their posters and speeches--this will be fun! I'm noticing they are pretty interested in, and good at, being persuasive! :)
8th grade
This week, the students will be continuing their multi-genre project over the Hazelwood High Trilogy. Throughout the week they will be reading, taking quizzes, and turning in artifact projects over the novels.
9th grade
This week, the students will be performing monologues and soliloquies from William Shakespeare's plays. I am very excited to see how they do!
