Homeroom News 207

October 2009

The first month of school has flown by and homeroom 207 is finally in the swing of things. Everyone is on target working on their personal goals and has gotten to pick a prize from our “Monkey Box.” As a class, we completed our first contingency reward by building our “Ice cream Cone.”  We chose ice cream (of course!) and a movie as our first reward. We are on our way to earning our next class reward…… “Pizza and a movie!”

We want to congratulate our new level II students, Alex, Dolapo, Ryan E., Ryan K., Rose and Natalie. We are looking forward to having everyone in 207 on a green card very soon.

Science has been particularly interesting this year for our class. We have been using the Weather Bug Achieve web site to explore many fascinating facts about our local and world wide weather. We are learning how weather is measured, how data is collected and how to interpret this information on charts and graphs. Our new Promethean board makes learning LARGE and interactive, which makes learning a lot more fun!

Just a reminder to check the website for BONUS WORK from all of your teachers. One dollar is earned for every subject that you complete. Everyone has been very excited to shop at The Chapel Hill Academy school store. They have a lot of neat stuff.  But, you need your Chapel Hill dollars in order to make a purchase, so get to work!

See you at our next Parent Night on Thursday, October 22nd at 6:30 p.m.!
