Grade 8
Another great week in Grade 8!
Motif and theme work in Literacy continues to go well! Students have practiced this skill using picture books and children’s literature and they are getting quite skilled at writing theme statements and making inferences.
In Social Studies, students explored the role of local government and reviewed the ballots of both Kingston and Newton and discussed the importance of voting. This week they also began collecting evidence for their upcoming summative assessment where they will compare the governments of Athens and America.
In Science, we discussed the Law of Conservation and the fact that matter can neither be created nor destroyed. We balanced chemical equations to show that in a chemical reaction matter can transform into something else but all matter at the beginning of the chemical reaction, must be represented in the finished product(s).
In Math, we have worked hard reviewing the material to prepare for our summative next week. The Math Bingo and Math Kahoot gave the students a great way to practice. After our summative we will be working on some more real world problems applying some more Math topics.
Please continue to encourage independent reading at home! As always, we thank you for the support you provide at home.
Grade 7
It has been a great week here in the 7th grade. We hope you all had a chance to enjoy the lovely weather!
ELA: Students finished up their research notes on their topics and they will begin writing their argumentative research essays in class this coming week. If students are not finished researching, they should take the time before our next class to get caught up.
Social Studies: Students completed their focus on natural resources, traditional economies and the manufacturing cycle. Two classes have started their summative assessment on these topics. This coming week, students will complete the summative and we will move on to learn about economies today and international trade.
Math: Last week students learned two models for visualizing addition of rational numbers (number lines and chips). That work will continue this week and then we will explore subtraction. We will most likely have a summative assessment on addition at the end of the week.

SRMS Student Attendance Expectations 2020-2021
This year at SRMS we will be tracking attendance a little differently than we historically have. This is to ensure your child’s safety in our building and to be consistent across the middle and high schools. If your child will be absent, late, dismissed early, or will miss a class period please use Pickup Patrol to report this absence as an excused absence. Any absences that have not been reported through Pickup Patrol will be marked as unexcused. Teachers will be taking attendance at the beginning of each period. If your child misses one or more classes during the day and it has not been documented through Pickup Patrol, the absence will be marked as unexcused and an automated email will be sent home from Renee LeBlanc. If you get a message and have information or documentation as to why your child’s absence should be excused, please contact Renee LeBlanc at rleblanc@sau17.net.
YES, THERE WILL BE A YEARBOOK THIS YEAR!
We might want to forget 2020, but we certainly won’t. SRMS has been working hard and has overcome challenging circumstances to create a book that documents this historic year. This is one book you will want to have.
Copies are limited. We don’t have the ability to order extras, so please CLICK HERE to guarantee your copy.
