FSU Field Trip Update

All money and permission slips for Tuesday's FSU Basketball Field Trip are due by tomorrow at noon. In addition, students need to have reached 35% of their AR Goal by tomorrow at noon in order to be eligible for the trip.

Upcoming FSU Field Trip!

We have a field trip coming up to see an FSU Women's Basketball game of November 18th! We are very excited to offer this opportunity to students. Permission slips will be coming home soon. Students must have reach 35% of their AR Goal by the Friday before the field trip, November 14th in order to attend. We are really encouraging students to read throughout the whole nine weeks and not to wait until the last week to really read for their AR Goal. Please make sure students are reading at least 30 minutes a night! Independent reading not only promotes creativity and cognitively complex thinking, but also builds students reading comprehension and stamina.

Speeches

Don't forget students will be presenting their speeches in class on Friday the November 7th! Speeches should be between 2 and 3 minutes. Students will be graded on their ability to present their speech to our class comfortably while making eye contact, using expression, and the length of their speech. Students can use notecards, or bring their written speech up with them, but should have most of their speech memorized so they don't need to read the whole thing. Make sure students are practicing their speeches and timing themselves so they can be comfortable and ready in class on Friday. :)

Wild Adventures payments due this week!
