Let's get dressed up!

From the desk of our History Student Teacher Ms. Ostrander |
The 7th grade did an awesome job of creating some "Baseball"/"Pokemon" cards for their end of WWII unit. This is one example. |

From the desk of Mrs. Doetsch
The STEM students have been building four toothpick bridges to understand the shapes, strength, and efficiency. They apply mathematical skills and structural knowledge in designing and building the most efficient bridges.

6th grade: They have finished the Unit of The Little Prince. They are translating part of Chapter 21 into Chinese, strictly following the tone and manner of the text they have learned. Next Monday, March 7, is a Unit test.

From the desk of Mrs. Johnson
6th Grade: We are writing our Social Studies Essay rough drafts this week! The rough draft will be due Monday, March 7. We also have a quiz over elements of a research essay this Friday, March 4.
7th Grade: We are finishing chapters 6-7 of the novel Call of the Wild in class. Students are expected to submit their 5 paragraph essay for English and Social Studies on March 11, though we will have minimal English class time to work on it.
8th Grade: Students have the option to express their understanding of the play "12 Angry Men" through either a creative project or a traditional test. Both are due on Wednesday, March 2. Later this week, we will begin our study of the memoir Night.
Everyone:
- Reading Logs are due each Friday! Your student gets 5 Wolf Bucks and a big water bottle sticker for bringing in their reading logs with a parent/guardian signature. Please reach out if you have any questions!
- We are starting a lunch book club! Details/books are TBD--but your student will have the option to spend lunch with me, discussing our book in the Wolf Den. I would love for anyone to join!

Below The Surface Campaign
This awareness effort run by the Colorado Department of Human Services aims to help teens connect to and get support from Colorado Crisis Services by texting “TALK” to 38255. The line allows anyone to text 24/7 with a trained counselor on a personal, free, confidential line. Below the Surface was created by youth for youth who feel pressured to appear as if everything is fine, but just “below the surface” struggle with feelings of isolation, stress, anxiety, and depression related to studies, drugs, alcohol, and relationships. The messaging tries to reassure young adults that it’s OK to ask for help, no one dealing with a mental health or substance use challenge is alone, and regardless of how big or small the challenge is, there is a trustworthy resource to turn to. Colorado Crisis Services is recruiting youth and trusted adults to share Below the Surface in their communities. Click here to learn how to get involved in the Below the Surface youth leadership program, access assets for publishing to your social media feeds, and to order or download free campaign materials.
