This week is Milestone testing. It's the opportunity to see how much you've grown over the year and what we still need to work on before our CAASPP testing in May. There will only be one assignment, in addition to your book club reading until we get back from break (so make it a good one!)
1. Milestone testing Wednesday and Friday.
2. Book club reading: 30 minutes a day or more.
3. Historical You Project-- make a personal social media page poster, most like a facebook page, for a person your age during the time period your class is studying. (8th grade: southern US 1800-1850; 7th grade: renaissance Europe; 6th grade: ancient Egypt). The grading will total 10 test points based on the following criteria:
- poster sized 11x20 or larger (1 point)
- historical accuracy (2 points)
- creativity (2 points)
- visual presentation (1 point)
- written conventions, spelling, grammar, legibility (2 points)
- following directions (2 points)
This is going to be a great week and a super spring break. Please remember that this is the final week to turn in school work for full credit. Jupiter Grades is updated until March 11. Please check and email me if there is anything you're missing and need to make up. Have a wonderful week!
