Social Studies 7 this week:
We are continuing our map making process. By Monday all students will have 12x18 watercolor paper and are starting by drawing a final pencil outlines of all land and the latitude and longitude lines we will use in our final version of the map. After pencil, students will trace the continents and lines with extra fine sharpie. By the end of next week, we will start to watercolor the final map.

This coming Friday, each student will take a rivers and mountains of the work geography quiz. Students should use Quizlet and a copy of their world maps to study.

Language Arts 7 this week:
We are typing our writings that will help us complete the problem based story. We will type a quickwrite and various story sketches. We will start by peer editing and responding to these short samples, and work with student feedback to improve the focus of our stories.

Students should start reading the Realistic Fiction Novels 20 minutes a night. We will start a public speaking contest by trying to sell our books to other students in the class. The contest finals will be held in the library in five weeks. Details forthcoming.
