I Missed You All So Much Today!

I really missed being with you all today! However, I had heat exhaustion and needed rest and hydration. It was not bad enough that we have had so much heat on our hall during the day, but when I got home we had a horrible storm and our neighborhood transformer put about 10 blocks in Central Gardens out of power until 3:00 a.m. Needless to say, my family was debilitated from heat!! However, I can't wait to see you tomorrow!

Let's recap where we are, shall we?

OK, you took notes on latitude and longitude, you've completed maps of the globe, North America and Africa, thus far; you have established your Gaggle accounts and I think we have ironed out all of the problems with the exception of the new students who have never before attended WSMS (we're still working on you!); we completed our Moviesheets on longitude; then you retrieved your latitude and longitude worksheets from Gaggle, and last, but not least, you have submitted your Trip Wow videos. Of course, let's not forget the Textbook work you did in my absence today in the Geographer's Handbook section. We will finish that before the week is out. I think that about covers everything. Check through this paragraph and ensure that you have done everything I have mentioned.

Tomorrow is textbook day, and it happens through the Social Studies teachers. That will take up most of our period for the day. We may get to a little work, but I doubt it.

On Thursday we will complete the Latitude/Longitude worksheets (so make sure you have it with you), and I will do a quick notebook and folder check for a daily grade. I will also give you a study guide for your first quiz which we will have on Friday. I will also give you a vocabulary chart that you will use the glossary in your textbook to fill out for homework over the weekend. By next week, we will use that to begin our first set of flashcards.

I think that about covers everything for the next few days. Can't wait to see you tomorrow!
