Wednesday, October 20

Minimester is here! Meet at high school at 8:30 AM sharp on Wednesday. If you are unsure about how to get there, meet in front of our 6th Avenue Building at 8:20 to meet up with Niles to walk you over to 40 Charlton Street (Thanks, Niles!). You will continue to meet at the high school through Friday afternoon, according to the agreements of your group. I’ll see you there! It’s going to F U N. 🙂

Minimester Reminders:

  • Alma: You will need bag lunches and drinks on both Wednesday and Thursday.
  • Max–bring in 5 songs you think are well written and great on iPod or CD. Bring your guitar, if possible.
  • Viviane and Nora–remember to bring in or wear yoga clothes
  • CROSS COUNTRY: Meet Carin on Thursday in the lobby for your meet at 2:00PM.
  • If you are on campus for lunch, 8th and 9th graders may not leave the building to eat or for any other reason.

Due Monday, October 26:  * Please plan ahead so you don’t have to do all this work over the weekend. In fact, why not complete it before then? *

  1. Civil War Fiction: Bring in your own copy of your Civil War book (see posts earlier this week for details & list to choose from). Start looking and ordering NOW!
