Please visit this page often as I will update this page daily to keep you informed of the activities in the class and also advise you of events and other information.
At the end of every week I will also be updating notes that were taken from the week in Math, Science and Social Studies. They will be in PDF format and you need to have adobe acrobat to access the notes. (It may take awhile the first time you open it since most documents are multiple pages)
You can access your daily assignments by clicking on your team below the homework heading.
Need to access WorldBook, EBSCO or other online resources? Click on the Library link under Other Links! You can also access fun websites under Noggle's Nifty Net Resources located on the left hand side of the library's website. You need to have your handy Password list available to log in to the websites! (Mrs. Burkey has more of these or I can get them if you need them).
If you're still struggling to access First Class at home, select the First Class Info. Link to set up First Class at home!
If you need to contact me, click the Email Me link below the Contact Information heading.
If one of your teachers has a webpage where they post notes or important information, you can access their page by selecting your teachers name under the Teachers Webpage link.
Forgot your Math, Science or Social Studies book at school and need access to it?! Don't fret! By selecting Science, Math, or Social Studies under the Textbook heading you can get your book! (Make sure you have your username and password list available to access the site!)
