Getting Underway!
Over the last two weeks we’ve been getting to know each other and figure out how things are going to work. This week we really get to the gritty and get going with content work. Please check the pages for your student’s class for more detailed information (see side navigation).

Week of August 16
One week under our belt and things are starting to roll! I have set up pages for each of my classes, which you can see on the navigation to the side. When we get going on things for classes next week you’ll see a lot more information on those pages (which for now our blank). This week we are working to build our social contract, which will guide they way we work throughout the year. At the end of the week students will be introducing a partner they interviewed to the rest of the class. Their writing for that is due on Thursday. I’ve also sent a letter home regarding grades & student work. Please look that over and send it back signed. Below is a summary of my grading policies, which we went over in class today.
Due this week
signed letter for class – 6th grade
signed letter for class – 7th grade

Welcome to the 2010-2011 School Year!
I’m so very excited about this year and looking forward to a another great year at Country Meadows! Part of the reason I am so excited about this year is that we have made some changes to how things are structured, so not only will I be teaching 7th grade science I will also see some sixth graders for science and social studies. If you have questions about your student’s schedule please feel free to ask any of the sixth/seventh grade teachers. We look forward to working with all of you this year!
The site you are looking at now will be updated at least weekly with information about assignments, quizzes, school news, and more. I will be setting up pages for my different classes (7th science, 6th science, and 6th social studies), so look for those soon.
Lots more to come, but just a hearty welcome for now. We continue learning at 8:40 on Monday, August 9th!
Mr. Hunt
Learn well!
