HW - Tuesday, 5/9

Parents:

• Day Two of testing was smoother. Anyone who needs to complete their ELA SBAC tests will do so tomorrow. Get plenty of rest, eat well, and exercise.
• Spring Music Concert papers were distributed and went home today. Ask your child for it!
• Bring ALL library books to Ruskin immediately!
• LAST BOOK ORDER of the year is due tomorrow, 5/10. If you are PLANNING ON BUYING books, please let me know. I will give your child a "Buy $5 or more, get one book (up to $5 value) for free" voucher. You can input the code online or return it to school (with a check). [When ordering and they ask for the class code, it is 1FGFV.]

• Upon correction and completion of the voucher form (no extra ticket purchases are necessary), I will send the voucher forms and answer sheets to the Athletics to receive two tickets per student.
• Assuming we get the tickets before the end of the school year, you can view the schedule here: http://oakland.athletics.mlb.com/schedule/?c_id=oak
• I strongly recommend that you choose a game that also pairs with a free giveaway. You can view the promotional schedule here: http://oakland.athletics.mlb.com/schedule/promotions.jsp?c_id=oak
• Also, they offer some FREE PARKING Tuesday games: http://m.mlb.com/athletics/tickets/info/freeparking
• TenMarks - UPDATE: I assigned the final two domains (Fractions and Geometry) for completion by testing. Thought these do NOT count toward their grade, it will help identify areas in which the student needs to do more review before testing. We will continue to have time each day, as long as we have access to a computer cart, to work on them in class. However, they should be doing them at home!
• If you are still seeing some lessons as not assigned, please email me. Thank you.

4.   P.E. tomorrow

• Time Change: Music next Tuesday (8:10-9:00 a.m.)
