NIEMAN - WEEK OF 7 JUNE

Parents and students...I apologize for not having this blog updated sooner. My policy is to update it each Thursday; and I did not do so last week - and to compound matters - CTCS lost its internet for the better part of two days.

Below I'll just briefly give the highlights and most urgent and timely info for the remainder of this week. I'll post one final time this year on Thursday 10 June.

MS BIBLE

6th - Students took an abbreviated quiz on Acts Monday 7 June. Next and final activity is a poster collage identifying our identity in Christ.

The proposed Gallery Walk is CANCELLED due to a conflict here on campus. The assignment will still remain for the students to do during our last few days of class.

7th - Continuing the book of Revelation

8th - LOTS going on...please review the end-of-the-year agenda given to students a few weeks ago.

7TH LIFE SCIENCE

Work has begun on the Organ Systems student teaching. A packet of guidelines was given to students and we're taking class time to work on this assignment.

Student Teaching begins this week; two students per day. This is the final, significant assignment for the year...students are doing very well so far...keep up the good work!

We're examining the US Civil War and will continue this subject until the end of the year.
