(8) Week of October 22nd

SOME IMPORTANT INFO:

1. In preparation for completing SB Q1, due Friday, review the 6 required categories carefully and make sure that your work represents each as assigned. Remember, while you can (and should) reflect on your work at any time, only one REFLECTION is officially due at the end of each quarter. This is one entry that you really should complete at the last minute so that it can be inclusive of the learning, experiences, SOL, and AHoM accomplished to date. Don't forget about AS #3 AND IF YOU NEED MORE TIME, TAKE UNTIL OCT. 29TH.
2. ​Remember that in-class Daily Drawings have been suspended in order to save time for working with Tommy, so keep up with those on your own. USE WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN LEARNING WITH TOMMY AS YOU LOOK/SEE/DRAW!!! 
3. ALSO... It's time to start thinking about Scholastic entries. The deadline is December 13th but preparations should start now. Go HERE to understand what those preparations entail.
