Crew Workday

A.J. in pink pirate colors. Bret as a rather unattractive woman with “no taste in clothes” (student comments, not mine.) and Chris as one of the bounty hunter’s wives, all marked the very strange spirit day today.

Mrs. Scales reminded us to study for the root word test tomorrow. Everyone should be able to get a perfect score as this is the second time taking the same root word test.

Pink Poetry Night registration forms were passed out. It is a 5 point assignment to take the form home and get a parent signature. These forms are due back to Mrs. Scales by Friday.

There was also a sign up on the front board for anyone wanting to do a book talk next Tuesday in class.

We quickly reviewed the upcoming writing contest and opportunity deadlines and Mrs. Scales posted a calendar to help us keep track of deadlines.

The rest of the class time was used for crews to work on their Jolly Rogers.
