Mrs. Pennington's Parent Resources

     Thanks for visiting my classroom website!  This is a listing of the links to important pages on my website and also to some of my favorite online resources for gifted education.  Please feel free to contact me at any time via email  ppennington@nevada.k12.mo.us with any questions that you may have or call me at Nevada Middle School 417-448-2040 ext. 4058.  I would love to have each and every one of my parents on my email information list.  It is such a handy way to send out information for all parents. 

     I have also written a new page for my website that includes a syllabus for the 2008-2009 school year.  It lists the major learning units we will be completing for each grade and also has an attached school year planning calendar so that students can explore the general plan for the school year. 

     Please make sure to periodically read the ACTION Classroom News page.  I try to keep it updated with current activities and news going on the in the ACTION classroom.
