Homework and a SPECIAL gift

Dear Friends,
We have a very special message from Ronnie today. When we began discussing Tu B'Shvat and what we could do as a class several weeks ago, it was suggested that we plant a tree in Israel. Well, that would have been a challenge for us, but it was not impossible.
Luckily, one of our students happened to be in Israel on Tu B'Shvat. She planted a tree on behalf of our class and all of Carmel School. She will give us more details when she returns to class. We thank her so much for this wonderful service to the earth. Thank you, Ronnie!!!


This morning the school went to Elsa High School for a Carmel Annual Dinner rehearsal. Academic activities resumed this afternoon.

1. Read a book or a chapter of the book you are reading. In the reading log, note the amount of time read and the number of pages read during that time.

2. In your journal, write about what you read. You can write about the characters, what you think will happen, what you think about the story, or anything else you'd like to write about that pertains to the book.

3. Practice the songs and song parts that you sing for the Annual Dinner. Thursday night is just around the corner!

4. MATH: Unless you have special instructions in your Communication Book, finish pages PW 89 and PW90 tonight. For a small clip, you may cut out one of the small clips under the feather on problem number 1. You can skip either #1 or #2 on PW90 if you have cut through the math problem. Another option is to take a piece of paper, cut it the size of the small clip and use it to measure. This way, you CAN do #1 and #2 on PW90.
MATH work does not need to turned in until Thursday. Follow the pace of the homework to even out the time you spend on it each night. If you finish the whole chapter before Thursday, you may turn it in to the Finished Work basket when you come to school.
Shalom.
