As you have already been made aware there have been a few changes to advisory to support students at Brooks. Students will now meet in advisory for the first 15 minutes every day. This whole school concept was implemented to bring organizational benefits to our students. Students are expected to bring to advisory an updated student assignment log/handbook, which lists all of their homework. They also need to bring writing utensils and their materials for their morning classes. This hopefully will help students be successful at the start of the day.
In Language Arts we are reading short stories in the literature textbook, continuing to work on grammar development and doing some freewrite reflections. Please check my blog to the right of this page under "class activities" for the week if you have a question.
It is very helpful to your student if he/she keeps track of activities and tries to complete them while absent. I update any changes to the blog as soon as possible. Feel free to request work to be sent to the office for pickup if your child is out due to illness.
Thank you for your continued support this year. Please also feel free to email me about any questions or concerns you may have.
