Day 3 - Letter to Parent
Target: I will analyze Mr. Hauser's Letter to Parent by reading, highlighting, and discussing it.
Today we went over the Letter to Parent, something all classes must do. This is a homework assignment to get signed by a parent or guardian.
In order to practice some study skills, we used highlighters to make important ideas and details stand out. We also discussed what each of the consequences means by having group discussions and trying to put them in our own words or give examples.
The most important detail was that students must bring their Science Notebooks (8.5 x 11" spiral bound) by Friday!
Finally Mr. Hauser gave a short presentation about his background and family.

Day 2 - Assignment 3 - All About Me (Complete)
Today we reviewed our target from yesterday, and identified what was left incomplete (the nametag)
We spent time reviewing our All About Me handout and reading more about each True Color.
Students then took 15 minutes to complete their nametag and write a reflection on how their nametag shows the ways they learn best, and a healthy thing they do.
The assignment was collected, to be returned on Friday.

Day 1 - Assignment 3 - All About Me
Target: I will discover my learning style, my true color, and create a nametag showing both.
Today students learned to line up outside the classroom and enter the room quietly.
Students were assigned seats alphabetically in groups of 4, and Mr. Hauser did his best to pronounce everyone's names correctly during role.
Next Mr. Hauser conducted part of an experiment testing which class could pass out papers the fastest. The results will be posted as soon as all periods finish their trials.
After that, students copied the target for the day in red pen, then discovered their learning style by observing each other as they though about a couple of hard questions - What is the earliest memory you have? and What did you eat for breakfast on Saturday. They then completed part of their handout on what each style is - visual (see it), auditory (hear it), and kinesthetic (move to it)
Finally students took a short questionnaire to determine their true colors. These are personality types that help students understand their own preferences in how to learn. The colors are Gold, Blue, Green, and Orange.
Students will find out the meaning of their colors and complete their nametags tomorrow.
