Deadline Adjustments... AGAIN

I hope you all enjoyed your two snow days last week. We'll modify the deadlines again to accommodate the changes.

7th Language Arts: Your final drafts are due for Writer's Workshop by the end of the day on Tuesday, January 12. We'll hold over Week 15 spelling for this week, so that posttest will be on Friday, January 15.

Cast of The Secret School: Stay on schedule. We'll skip over the days we missed and try to catch them up later. That means we'll be blocking Section 2 today, Monday, January 11.

GOAL: Be sure to keep up with your independent reading during time off. Some of you have really been slacking when it comes to your reading contracts!

For 20 NU points, tell me about your New Year's resolutions. What are you going to do this year to improve your life? My resolutions are always the same. I need to eat healthier and exercise more. I hope to actually keep them one day! My new one for this year is to accept my life and be happy. Sometimes I get hung up on "what might have been," and I miss the blessings going on in my life right now. I hope to be better about that this year. What are your New Year's resolutions?

  1. Well, my New Years resolutions are that I want to get organized. I also want a long-term boyfriend that I can trust, but that's getting personal if you ask me. I want to get two friends that don't get along well to start getting along. Those are my New Year's Resolutions.

  3. I would like to get my 100 meter time down, and I would also like to set a goal of finding things I enjoy doing in my spare time.

  4. I just want to challenge myself. Do things I never thought I could do before. I'm kinda getting a little freaked about what is going to happen when I get to high school. I haven't really been challenged in school except for a tiny bit in my gifted classes. I'm going to have to work in high school and I just want to prepare myself for that.

  5. I really want to make a smooth transition in highschool. I was recently at the highschool for SIEBA Honor Band and I got lost multiple times so I am a little worried about getting used to the size of the highschool. I also want to make wiser choices in my life this year. Ones that I can be proud of later on in my life and not look back on and regret them. So in a nutshell I want to keep life up at the same space while avoiding all bumps in the road that I can and taking the ones that I can't with stride.

  6. My biggest goal is to just except what life gives me. If I'm unable to change it I want to change the way I see it.

  12. My new years resolutions are to lose some weight. I am so worried about my health that I need to do something. The other one is to start to act more mature at home.
