COMMENT ON MY BLOG FOR EXTRA CREDIT....
From now on, overtime that you comment on my weekly blog, you will receive 2 extra credit points. Basically, when you comment, you just say that you read the blog. Include name, period and roll call. To comment, you click the comment section at the end of the blog as an "Anonymous" user. When you comment, I will receive an email and then you will get the credit in Pinnacle.

ARE THERE ANY ASSIGNMENTS DUE THIS WEEK?
No, nothing is due.

I have an Extra Credit Page that always has different types of Extra Credit assignments you can choose from. I would love some Fitness Mixes. Make me some good CD's to use on your Run and Fitness Days. Read about the assignment guidelines on the extra credit page. I also added that if you choose to comment on the weekly blogs by stating that you read it, give your name, period and roll call, I will give you 2 extra credit points each week.

ARTICLE OF THE WEEK (AOW)
Since Scoliosis testing starting Monday for 7th and 8th graders, I decided to choose a couple of Scoliosis articles as Article of the week. It is always good to be educated about whatever tests are ever done to you, so, please take a few minutes to read these:

DID YOU KNOW (DYK)

    Mr. Sickler,
    The "Google Calendar" link on your blog is broken. It links to the sixth grade calendar, not the eighth grade calendar. Thought you might want to know,
    Raymond
