SOCIAL STUDIES
Our study of World War II will continue as we consider the Japanese attack at Pearl Harbor. Students will read a first-hand account of the attack written by a survivor of the USS Arizona. Classes will respond to the events at Pearl Harbor with an in-class writing assignment on Wednesday & Thursday. Friday we will continue on into Section 3 of Chapter 26.

HOMEWORK for Social Studies:
With consideration of our in-class writing assignment, I do not have any homework planned for any night this week. If a student does not finish an assignment in class however, the student will be expected to complete the assignment at home. The assignment should be turned in to me the next day.

SCIENCE
We are beginning our study of Chapter 19, Earth, Moon & Sun. Students were assigned a Climate Poster project last Thursday. Students were given a sheet with the requirements of the project listed as well as the due date. THIS IS AN INDEPENDENT PROJECT THAT WILL BE COMPLETED OUTSIDE OF CLASS. Students researched their climates on Friday with the laptops. Parents, please check with your student to determine where they are in the process of completing this project as it is due this Friday, January 21st.
