The 8th Grade excelled during the 3rd Quarter study of Holocaust literature. Now we are jumping into their final quarter of middle school which will give them several opportunities to reflect on their experience at DMS. We'll also enjoy a novel either as a whole-class activity or in book clubs. We are allowing each class to "choose their own adventure." 

Word fun this quarter focuses on analogies. We recommend having conversations with your child where you both use analogous relationships to explain new concepts they experience in everyday life.
