Spanish update

¡Hola!

Spanish students have a quiz tomorrow 10-17-14 on telling time using "menos".  

Our first unit test is scheduled for Thursday 10-23-14.  There will be listening, reading and writing sections on the test.  Usually, there is a speaking portion, but I'm omitting it for this test.  

My study advice is to make sure they know all the essential questions on the post-it note foldable.  The test will include greetings, farewells, calendar words, numbers 1-100, telling time, colors, cognates (words that look like English, but are really Spanish) and seasons.

Any questions, feel free to email me!

Just another day in 7th grade science! 

Thanks to those that helped at home to make this a great experience for the kids.

EXTRA study guide

Students have completed 2 of 3 sections of their final exam.  Posted on Mr. Scully's website is a supplementary study guide.  This is completely optional, and I'd love to stay 12th period on Monday or Wednesday to complete it with students. 

50 multiple choice essays on Friday.

Please have a 2 liter bottle ready for Monday, June 16th

Social Studies 7 Update

Hard to believe we are talking final exam already!  On Friday we finished this year's curriculum with a visit from Abraham Lincoln himself.  We wrapped our unit on the Civil War and now are beginning the review process for our final exam.  Our final exam is next Monday 6/16, and Tuesday 6/17.  Students were given a final exam review packet which we will be working from in class.  However, it is expected that they will spend some time at home each night somehow preparing for the final exam.  Hope this helps.  Take care and have a great summer!

Breaking Science News!

Part 1 of the final exam is in the books (literally, they're in the gradebook and on Parent Portal).  

Part 2 is being MOVED to Thursday, June 5th due to a music assembly on Friday, June 6th. 

Part 3 will continue as scheduled for Friday, June 13th.  

Practice essays will be accepted through Monday. 

Spanish update

We are on track per my previous post. Most students did an amazing job on the menu projects with the sub last week! We are wrapping up the food unit with the Unit test, which is tomorrow.  The students have a purple review sheet to help them prepare. Attached is a calendar with assignment due dates for the remaining of the school year.

A call for help

Mr. Scully is currently in search of a plastic drum that can hold water. If you have a 30 or 55 gallon drum, with a lid, please email him at bscully@starpointcsd.org.

We are trying to grow our hydroponic vegetable garden.  In years past, the 13 gallon sterlite tub goes dry within a few days.  

Thanks in advance for your support.
