October and November Updates
Hello all!
I know that we are all in the swing of things by now. Here are a few things to remember for the next few weeks:
Wednesday, Oct 31st
October Book Celebration. We have been reading Robin Hood in class together. During reading the class will be putting Robin Hood on trial to determine if he is really the protagonist of the story or the antagonist. Students are encouraged to dress like characters/objects from the book. I have my green costume ready to go :) Later in the day, we will gather with both 6th grade advisories to play games and watch the Disney version of Robin Hood.
Friday, November 2nd
Parent Teacher Conferences. Drop in conferences will be held from 5-7pm at the school. Remember that the grades coming home are only a progress report. Report cards are given at semester. There is still time to get things fixed. If you have a concern or question, this is the perfect opportunity to visit with all your student's teachers.
Thanksgiving Break
The week of November 19th - 23rd
Invent Idaho
You may have heard about the contest we are entering as a part of science called Invent Idaho. It takes place of the traditional science fair. We are working on most of the project in class. However, there are 2 parts that need to take place at home. The first is making the prototypes. The second is creating a display board that showcases your student's invention. We are still several weeks away from starting to think about building. If you want a heads up on what is coming down the line, please click the link below and read more about Invent Idaho.

September Reminders
Hello all!
We now have August under our belts and are starting to get the hang of middle school. Here are a few reminders for the month of September:
Friday, Sept 14th - Picture Day. Order forms were sent home last week. You can also order online at mylifetouch.com using the Vision Charter Code ID118783Y0
Friday, Sept 21st - No School
If you haven't logged into Edmodo or Infinite Campus yet, you will definitely want to, so you are up-to-date. If you aren't a tech savvy person, have your student pull up these sites for you and have them give you a tour.
Edmodo - 1. Go to Edmodo.com Click the parent button and enter the class code tkmwz9
Infinite Campus - send an email to crystalbrown@visioncsd.org requesting a login. Afterwards you can use the link on the blog under the brass ring tab to sign in and see your students' grades.
Students:
Just as a reminder, today you should have gotten your Infinite Campus login from either Mrs. Clark or Mr. Boothby. If you were absent, make sure to drop by the office and get your login when you get back. You are welcome to check your current grades online. Mrs. Warr, Mrs. Paulus and myself will be posting grades all this week and will have you check them in advisory on Thursday. If you catch a discrepancy, please bring it to our attention immediately
