March 28- April 1

Dear Students:

This week we continue to work in Chapter 19: Earth, Moon and the Sun. We will continue to work in our Chapter Projects in class, as well as completing our learning process through lectures, videos and class discussions. We will also be solving concept Maps, Key concepts and the rest of the Work Pack.

This week I would like you to focus on how to use your time. Time is the most valuable resource a student has. It is also one of the most wasted of resources. The schedule you develop should guide you in how to allocate the available time in the most productive manner. Sticking to your schedule can be tough. It is only up to you to have the discipline to follow the schedule you prepared. A good deal of your success in high school depends on this simple truth. I would really like you to succeed in the future, so let’s make the best out of the time we have.
Second of all I would like you to implement these skills:
Organizing skills are skills necessary to arrange information so it can be understood or presented more effectively. Organizing skills include (1) comparing (identifying similarities and differences), (2) classifying -- or categorizing (grouping items into categories based on similar attributes),(3) ordering (sequencing in some logical manner), and representing (changing the form of information to show how critical elements are related. These changes could be visual, verbal, or symbolic).
