Exemplary Badger: Congratulations to Nolan R. for being selected as our Exemplary Badger for next week! To be selected as the Exemplary Badger means that the recognized student is upholding all of the high standards to which the Badger students agreed at the beginning of the year! It means that their behavior is respectful; that they are responsible for their work and their grades; that they are kind!
Congratulations to all members of the cast and production of Mulan Jr, our PMS Drama Club play that was performed this weekend. The production was magnificent in every way, and we salute all who worked so hard to make it a success!
Progress Reports go home this week.
Book orders are due this Friday! If you want your own copy of The Giver, let Mrs. McGuire know! Scholastic offers a $9 deal for a book and a movie poster. Perfect time to order one :)

Class Updates
Social Studies: Students spent the entire week working on their in-class research projects. This was a very unique project as the students were able to create their own rubric, choosing from standards in our curriculum, and then create a project that aligned with their rubric. On Friday, the students graded their own projects and had to provide reasoning. To say that I am very impressed is an understatement—the projects came out great! And oh, Tom Brady is officially the greatest of all time!
Science: At the beginning of the week we will be looking at how organisms develop. Students will research the mosquito life cycle to answer an ecological problem. At the end of the week we will begin our genetics unit. Students will start to look at acquired versus inherited traits.

Literacy: Students completed their Atlas Obscura projects, and have submitted them to the Google Classroom! We'll begin viewing the presentations Tuesday! And don't forget, the final draft of the Make a Difference paragraph should be attached to the Google Classroom assignment by Tuesday evening. Latin Unit 8 mastery test is scheduled for Friday, February 10th! Everyone should be studying their flashcards and using Quizlet!
English: Students finished their performance tasks last week on the Chrome Books and submitted them via Google Classroom. Well done! This week we are beginning a new reading unit! In addition to pre-reading activities, students will be learning new contextual vocabulary words while reading the first few chapters of The Giver. Year after year, this book proves to be a fan favorite among our students!
Math: We have moved onto proportions. Next week we will have a quiz, make sure to be looking over the notes, packet, and problems to study. This month's Go Figure has been passed out, it's due February 24th.
