    New goals - the last 11 weeks

    The students had a choice of a flower, butterfly or a cloud. They had to write their goal for the last quarter of school.

    Museum of Tolerance reflection bodies. Each 8th grade student used the body cutout to reflect on what lead up to the Holocaust, what happened after, vocabulary (and reflect on a word that has changed in meaning for student), profile of child of the holocaust, personal reflection and what is happening now around that world that violates human rights.

    Novio Boy by Gary Soto - Presented by CSU, San Bernardino Theatre Arts Department

    Message from Director Kathy Ervin
    This play explores the mystery of love through the eyes of Rudy and his circle of family and friends as they try to explain how to "speak from your heart". The play is a lovely reminder of the sweet, personal thing love is meant to be. Every character has a different idea about how to get the relationship going. Some ideas use common sense and some are farfetched. But all the characters understand the importance of the first impression.
    We picked this play because of the opportunity to live in the world of Gary Soto was very exciting. Mr. Soto is a writer whose work speaks clearly to a young audience and reminds an older one of our past. Uncle Juan and the Old Man character provide comic relief and also another perspective on "love potions". The play’s humor is in the recognition of how we handle the old problem of boy meets girl. We had a lot of fun exploring this world, hope you will too!

    Play Synopsis
    Rudy is a ninth-grader who has just made a first date, with an eleventh-grader – Patricia! Now he has to come up with the money, the poise, and the conversation to carry it off. Anyone who has been a teen or been in love will identify with their well-meaning family and friends who offer all kinds of advice in this heartwarming look at dating.



    Who is Gary Soto?
    Gary Soto is a Mexican-American author who grew up in Fresno, California. His works are primarily based on his own life, reflecting the adversities he has experienced because of his ethnicity, poverty, and circumstances of his youth. He has written poems, novels, and short stories, and was the youngest American poet to be included in the Norton Anthology of Modern Poetry.
    He began writing between high school and college as a way to express himself. In college, he wrote poetry to start his career, making writing his way to success.
