Pennies for Patients Fundraiser has begun.  Students were given cardboard collection boxes for the fundraiser.  Any amount of money (all money is acceptable — not just pennies) would surely help this worthy cause.  The fundraiser will end on Friday, April 5th.  Thanks as always for your support.  
Homework for 3/22/19: 
 
Reading/Literature:  READ 30 minutes every night including weekends!  The Jaguar composition books will be collected on TUESDAY, 3/26 for the GOLD GROUP only. 
Language Arts:  Remember to bring the informational packet to class every day.  Students will be writing a 5 paragraph essay on Dry Tortugas National Park.  The information will come directly from the articles provided in class.  Today, we looked online at pictures of Dry Tortugas (the Florida coastline, the lighthouse, coral reefs, beaches, etc.)  I wanted students to have a better understanding of what they would be reading about in the articles.   
 
Math:  Finish both worksheets
 
Science:  No homework
Social Studies:  No homework 
 
Have a great weekend.
