Week 8: 3/16-3/20

Monday 3.16.20

Hello everyone! I hope you are doing okay today.  I am thinking of you and I miss seeing your smiling and sleepy faces this Monday morning.  For today's learning experience, and if you are feeling up for it, here is the plan:


1. Read for 15 minutes.  Read The Catcher in the Rye, another book, even an article of interest.  If you don't have a book or want to read an article in addition to your book, here's one story about how some Italians created a positive moment in the midst of the coronavirus outbreak.  Be sure to watch the video!  

2. If you didn't complete this on my home page already, please fill out this form.  It is mostly for me to see how you are doing and to see if you are accessing this website.

3.  Work on Vocab Set 2.3.  The due date is listed as Tuesday, March 17th.  If you can submit the words, please submit under the "Turn in Papers" tab.

​Please email me if you have any questions, thoughts, or just want to talk.

I am looking into setting up a Google Classroom site and / or other ways to communicate with you.  Stay tuned for now, and stay safe!  

xoxo Ms. Frontier

Tuesday 3.17.20

Good morning! I hope your first day at home went as smoothly as possible.  I took a walk in the morning with my three boys and then spent some time reading your responses to my "how are you doing" question.  It was really nice to hear from many of you.  I know some of you are managing well, and others are bored, missing your friends, or nervous.  I hope you are able to connect with others on your phones and also that you find ways to relax and take your minds off of the constant news about coronavirus.  Here are some ideas: Listen to some relaxing music, get a few minutes of fresh air, watch a show, or even do some yoga.  Here is a yoga app that has just offered free access for K-12 students!

Here is a learning plan for today- again, if you are feeling up for it:


1. Read for 20 minutes.  Read The Catcher in the Rye, another book, even an article of interest.  Please try to read through and including Chapter 24 of Catcher in the Rye today if you can.   If you don't have a book or want to read an article in addition to your book, here's one story about how Nepal is making yoga mandatory for schoolchildren.  The photo at the end of the article of a very young boy concentrating on his yoga pose is worth a look.

2. Tuesday 3/17 Check in.  Complete this form so I know how you are doing today!  Again, it is super short and it allows me to hear how you are doing.

3. Your goal is to finish The Catcher in the Rye (Chapters 25 and 26) by tomorrow.  

Again, please email me if you have any questions, thoughts, or just want to talk. I have enjoyed hearing from some of you in the last day!
