In addition, all students need to be working on their personal speeches. Presentations dates were given out yesterday. These will begin this coming Monday. Everyone has the instructions and expectations in the Writing section of their language arts binders.

Here's a recap:

• The syllabus is to be read and signed by parents and the student. These are due on Wednesday.
• Summer reading logs are due by Friday to their 3rd hour teachers.
• The Pearl will be discussed and tested by the language arts teacher. My students need to have the book with them in class by Wednesday.
• Three ring binders are required for my class. We wish students to have these in class by tomorrow or as soon as possible since we will be starting to use them then. In addition, 5 dividers are also required, though these may be bought or handmade.
• Cobb County folders will go home, and included, you will find a list of the papers your student needs to return to school to their homeroom teacher. We would appreciate these be returned as soon as possible.
• Should you have any questions, always feel free to contact me or any other teacher. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to teach your children this year and invite you to come visit our class at any time.

All text books have been collected. Students who have lost one will be given a lost book form that must be returned with payment as soon as possible.

Special thanks to those students who are allowing me to keep their Holocaust posters for next year. We like to share these with the rising eighth graders and have them model your excellent work!

Lassiter has sent us a copy of all summer reading assignments. Students were each given a copy, and they signed a form stating that they received it. In addition, they saw the results of their Writing Assessment Test. These will be mailed home along with their report cards and CRCT scores.

Final exams begin tomorrow with foreign language/reading in the morning and language arts in the afternoon. Study and get a good night's sleep!

Have a terrific summer, stay healthy, make good choices, and work on your summer reading assignments! I will miss you all and hope that most of you will stop and visit next year. My door is always open!
