Week of 3-30

Hi Lions!                                                                                                                                                                                                                        


We hope you and your families are doing well during this time of school-and-work-from- home!

All of your teachers have prepared another week of lessons for you to practice.  Here is the link:

You can also find the link on the Winthrop Middle School website.

ELA
Are you still reading your novels?  Mrs Carsley has posted some interesting literature-based assignments for the week that she hopes you enjoy!  But keep reading those novels!!

(I'm on my 5th novel since school closure - an action novel where people get implants to access the internet with their thoughts. - Wouldn't that be crazy?)

Science
You're starting the CK-12 classroom today!  And this week you will be studying a local ecosystem!

Math
We're still highlighting skills on IXL Spring Plan with links to Khan Academy and other sites.  I made my first video reviewing Writing Expressions - Check it out from your Straycat or Wildcat Google Classroom!  I'm no Christopher Ragg, but I hope you like it!

Social Studies
We're exploring some Egyptian Pharaohs this week - including the last Pharaoh of Egypt- Cleopatra!

Have a great week!  Keep practicing social distancing!

Friday 3-27

Hi Lions!

Happy Friday! We hope all of you and your families are happy & healthy!  Take care of yourselves!

Seeing lots of great progress on your Learning Opportunities!  Keep it up!

Here is the link for your classes:

Here's an update from Mrs Carsley!  Go to your Science Google Classroom.  Follow the link to
C12 learning platform and use the class code provided.  Your work for Monday will be on this platform. - Good Luck!

I put your names on a random name selector to give a Learning Opportunities Shout Out!

Of course, this means you get minted when we return to school!  The only requirement is that you tried some of the Learning Opportunities!

This is the random selector (You will see a spin - If I figure out how to load a video, I'll add that next week!)

This was the winner from the Kings when I spun:

And the Cubs:

Congrats Chris & Arianna!

Keep up the good work, everyone!

Some students had trouble accessing the Common Lit Pyramids article.  I posted it on Social Studies Google classroom for you!

On my fourth book so far!!  Hope you are reading as well!  If you have a kindle, there is a free 30 day trial of their Lending Library!  But ask your parents first!

Keep up the social distancing!
