Thank you parents for a successful 1st nine weeks!  AND, for a successful Boosterthon!  We were able to raise over $34, 000 in profit for Huggins and our students! 

Please do not forget that if you have not signed up for a parent conference time to meet with me for a short 15 minute meeting, please do so.  The invitations went out via SignUp Genius a couple of weeks ago.  You MUST meet with me in person to receive your student's report card.

This week we are studying:

Math: We are still working on fractions this week.  Homework is assigned daily so please make sure to check that your student is doing theirs.  We will be having a Spiral Review on Friday including a 2 min. fast facts timed quiz.

Science: We are studying changes to the Earth and formations.  They have several things assigned for practice in StemScopes so please have them log on nightly.  Their homework is the Websurfing Science assignment and is due by Friday.

Social Studies: We are still working on the American Revolution and will be going back to the big social studies book to do a more in-depth study.  They are being assigned the Preamble to the Constitution as a major grade and will have to recite it from memory on 11/7.  They will have a History Alive Ch. 13 quiz on Wednesday, 10/29.

ELAR: We are moving into talking about expository texts in both writing and reading.  We are also still continuing our novel study.  Please encourage AR as many students did not meet their goal for the 1st nine weeks grading period and their AR grade reflected that.

Thank you for everything you do and have an awesome week!
