Below, you will find the schedule that you already have in your possession for Missing from Haymarket Square.

MFHS-Schedule 2011

Are you looking for some math assistance?  Make sure you look at the notes and guides that are under my picture.  We are now working on division strategies and using multiple towers.  These pages are a great tool for you to use at home; print them out, study from them, or even quiz yourself!

This week is our fist vocabulary list: e~ and ex~.  If you are looking for some creative ways to practice your vocabulary words, try a couple of these strategies at home!

*Vocabulary Concentration: Write each word  on a notecard and each definition on a separate notecard.  Place the words in one pile and the definitions in another making sure that each notecard is visible.  With a partner, turn one card from each pile over to to match the correct word with its definition.

*Vocabulary Password: Write each word on a separate notecard.  With at least two groups of two people, choose one person from each team to give clues using only ONE word.  Rotate people who give and receive the clues.

Have fun while you review!

I want to extend warm wishes to all Avoca West students and families; those returning and those that are new to the district.  I am looking forward to seeing all of you this week, and am excited to work with you throughout the school year.
