The Week: 2/10 - 2/14


Snow Day Monday!

No School Monday!
Sleep In Monday!
Need something to do?

READ! 
 (I'll give a ten Schneiderbuck bonus to the class fund for every 1/2 Reading Log turned in by Friday morning!)

LEARN!
Get a jump start on coordinate graphing by watching these videos.  I'll give five Schneiderbucks to the class fund for every video that each of you watch, but only if you bring a note signed by a parent!

CREATE!
Practice your dialogue writing skills by creating a story to go with the following dialogue.  Remember the five rules for quotations (Google it if you forgot)!  As a bonus, I'll add much needed Schneiderbucks to the class fund as follows and give you the same amount:
  • $10 for completing a story.
  • $50 for no errors in the dialogue conventions (the five rules).
  • $50 for the most creative story.
  • $25 for the second-most creative story.
  • $10 for the third-most creative story.
The dialogue (Create your own characters, setting and plot!):

A: Oh, no!
B:  What is it?
A:  Look over there.
B:  Over where?
A:  Don't you see it.  You must be blind!
B:  Oh, that!  I was distracted by the unicorn.
A:  Watch out for that pile of glitter.
B:  I may have stepped in some.
A:  We should go now.
B:  You're right

Still need something to do?  Watch this space for more challenges.

MYBH...
Thursday's MYBH is something you asked for.  You'll need Thursday's math notes to complete it, or you could just look online for help.  Click here for the instructions!  If you like that, you may also like the Unicorn Battle game.



This is what a SIX looks like!





For the curious among you, here is a model of what I'm building right now.  I showed you a piece this morning.  Here's what it (hopefully) looks like assembled.
