Dear Jonas Clarke Community,
!
Happy Fall! The weather is finally turning (not that I
was in a rush for colder weather) and the school year
is moving right along. It has been a very smooth start
to the school year from our perspective and hope that
it has been for your family at home as well.
It was such a pleasure to meet and talk with so many of
you at Back To School Night. Thank you for taking the
time out of your busy schedules to come and meet your
child’s teachers. I enjoy getting a chance (even a brief chance) to
speak to parents and tell you what my role and goals are for Clarke
this year.
!
Overall, our mission is to ensure that your child has the best possible
middle school experience. Should you have questions, concerns or
issues we ask that you contact us to discuss those and problem solve
through them. We have an incredible staff here that is entirely student
centered and we are paying close attention to meeting student’s needs
whether they are social, emotional or academic.
!
In mid October, we had our school wide Rachel’s Challenge
assemblies where students briefly learned about Rachel Joy Scott’s
history and how Rachel’s Challenges came to be. If you are interested
in the actual presentation that we showed students, it is available on
our website under “Announcements.”
!
During the assembly we also asked students to think about ways to
give back to the community by participating in our vast community
service program. Students received a brochure and were asked to fill it
out and turn it into the main office if they were interested in any of the
service activities. As they come up, students will be notified and
invited by the teacher running the activity. We strongly believe that an
emphasis on how we treat each other and giving back to others will
continue to add to our strong, supportive student culture here at
Clarke.
!
One community event that we are very excited about a new
community service opportunity called Empty Bowls. We are asking
any interested students (and staff) to make and decorate clay bowls.
These bowls will be on display and available for purchase at our Empty
Continued …
!

Bowls fundraiser on December 18 in the Clarke
Cafeteria. We are hoping to have local restaurants
donate soup and all of the proceeds will go to the
Lexington Food Pantry. If you are interested in
helping out with this event, please contact Alison
Bennett, eighth grade guidance counselor or
Alethea Roy, Clarke art teacher. For more
information on this event, check out our website.
!
In other news, I would like to thank you for your
support of the Clarke PTO and let you know
that the PTO has generously given us a SMART
Board for teacher use and teacher training. This is
an LCD interactive flat panel that has all the
capabilities of a SMART Board in the classroom
without a projector. This is the newest technology
that is out there and we are thrilled to have such
an early jump on experimenting with it.
!
As we roll into the fall we are looking forward to
many great events. Parent conferences are
coming up November and December and based on
parent feedback from our previous sign up
system, we are moving to Sign Up Genius this
year. More information about how and when to
sign up for conferences will be sent in early
November. We are also hosting an evening with
Dr. Englander from MARC (The Massachusetts
Aggression Reduction Center) about bullying and
the latest trends and research on cyberbullying.
!
Best wishes for a wonderful fall and holiday
season.

Greetings from the Clarke PTO!
!
We hope that the 2014-2015 school year is off to
a great start. The PTO has hit the ground running.
The Clarke staff enjoyed a lunch provided by the
PTO the day before school started and a pizza
dinner on Back to School Night. Team parents also
got together with teachers to find out how team
parents can help support the Clarke students. The
Apollo team parents got the ball rolling with a
delicious staff breakfast.
!
There was a tremendous turnout for the PTO
welcome coffee. It was inspiring to see so many
parents show up expressing their interest in
getting involved. The magazine drive, one of our
two big fundraisers, was not only a huge success
financially, but it also allowed students to enjoy
some friendly competition for prizes, and parents
to subscribe to their favorite magazines. It has
also been great to see students and families
showing their Clarke pride by ordering Clarke
spirit wear, and participating in the Stop and Shop
A+ Rewards Program.
!
We kicked off our Clarke parent information
sessions a few days ago with a “Get to Know
Your New School” forum, and we will be hosting
the welcome dinner for Clarke families new to
Lexington and the Lexington Public Schools on
November 1 seventh (6-8:30pm).
!
Students were full of smiles on school picture
day making it a great success, despite the dreary
weather. The sixth and seventh graders also had
the opportunity to celebrate being back at school
and getting to know one another at their socials a
couple of weeks ago. They were treated to great
food, a rockin’ DJ and wild (but not too wild)
dancing. The eighth graders will get their turn on
November 7.
!
PTO meetings, which are open to the entire
Clarke community, are a fantastic way to stay
informed and involved. We’d love to see you at
our next meetings on November 13th and
December 11th at 8:45 in the 3rd cafeteria. If you
haven’t met our principal, Anna Monaco, this is a
great opportunity to say hello and get an update
on what is going on at Clarke and the PTO.
Another way to learn about what the PTO is up to
is via our new website at www.clarkepto.org. Or if
you’re at school, check out our bulletin board
outside the office.
!
Our membership drive has had a strong start
but we would love to have the entire Clarke
community be a part of the PTO. If you have not
joined the PTO yet, don’t worry, because it’s never
too late. You can go to the Clarke website or the
Clarke PTO website and click on the PTO
Membership tab.

Community Service Update
Ms. Bennett, [email protected]
Clarke Guidance Dept. (781) 861-2450 x2080
This year I hope to increase the number of
students who engage in community service and
plan to organize several events for students and
their families. Clarke's first initiative is a Food
Drive to benefit the Lexington Food Pantry. Please
help your child to remember to bring in
nonperishable items from October 28 through
November 19.
If you have an idea for a service project or
volunteer opportunity please contact Ms. Bennet,
listed above.

A lot is happening down in the gym and in the
health rooms. Up to this point the weather has
been pretty cooperative. Physical education (PE)
classes have been training for the mile run which
has been officially run the week of October 14th.
!
We started out the first week of school running
three minutes adding a minute each week hoping
to reach about eight consecutive minutes.
Students that need to walk are encouraged to
“count to ten and get going again.” PE classes
have also been playing flag football, soccer,
and two cooperative games called Ultimate
Deck Tennis and Striker Ball. Parents are
encouraged to ask their child how they feel about
their mile run performance and which activity they
enjoyed the most and why.
!
We will stay outside as long as possible playing a
variety of group games until the weather turns.
We want to remind students they should be
prepared with a sweatshirt and sweatpants as the
weather changes. Upcoming units as we head
inside will be Cooperative Games, Project
Adventure and the Fitness Center.
!
Seventh and eighth grade health classes meet
twice a week for a semester. Seventh graders
taking health this semester are learning about
personal hygiene, skin care, eating right, and
exercise. One of the topics includes recognizing
healthy vs. unhealthy moles and the importance
of monthly skin checks. We encourage you to ask
your child if they have done a skin check andask if
they have any skin concerns.
!
Eighth grade health classes just finished up
Infant-Child-Adult CPR training, proper
choking techniques and how to properly use an
automated external defibrillator (AED). We
encourage students to share CPR and choking
techniques with siblings and parents. Classes are
now learning first aid.
!
The fall is a great time to enjoy the outdoors and
the beautiful foliage. We encourage families to
plan outdoor family outings (walk, bike, hike) to
promote lifetime fitness.

LEF’s Trivia Bee is coming!
http://www.lexedfoundation.org
Come cheer on our Clarke Teacher teams!
On Wednesday, November 12, at 7 pm, the
Lexington Education Foundation invites everyone
as it hosts its 19th annual Trivia Bee at the
Lexington High School auditorium.
!
This time-honored, Lexington tradition features
teams sponsored by local businesses,
organizations, and individuals, testing their trivia
know-how in a friendly battle of wits. One of LEF’s
greatest annual events, the Trivia Bee helps LEF
fund technology and curriculum innovations in all
nine Lexington Public Schools, for items that are
not covered by the district’s operating budget.
!
There will be pizza for sale, crazy costumes to
see, great trivia, and lots of your neighbors!
Admission is free. Audience members middle
school and younger need to be accompanied by an
adult.
!
Clarke will be well represented this year with three
faculty teams competing in this trivia Challenge.
Will team “Bee Strong” with Mark Waldeck, Kenny
Lazague, and Audra Alexander buzz to the top? Or
will “Crystal and the Blue Persuasion” or “The
Clarkies” take the prize? Come show your Clarke
pride and cheer for your teams while helping to
support Lexington Education Foundation. It
promises to be a great time!

Atlantis 6
Mr. Rogers, Atlantis Team Leader
[email protected]
!
Atlantis Team students are off to a great start.
Coming from a number of different elementary
schools, we are learning about each other and
quickly becoming a team. We have learned to
navigate our way around the building, use the
correct stairs, read our schedules, and we can
open our lockers (most of the time).
The entire sixth grade participated in
Project Adventure in September. Students worked
in small groups and were led through several
team-building activities. Though we had to deal
with some wet weather, the kids enjoyed the day.
We are planning our Annual Team Breakfast for
students which is a wonderful opportunity for
getting together with old friends and making new
friends. After breakfast, the team will go outside
for some team activities.
The Atlantis Team Homework Club started
in October. All students are welcome to come and
work on homework in room 367. There will be LHS
students earning community service hours serving
as peer tutors for our middle school students.
Homework Club runs every Wednesday from 3:00
to 4:00. Students need to make arrangements for
rides home.
The Atlantis Team is taking advantage of
the fall weather by enjoying outdoor recess
whenever we can. Thanks to Team Parents, we
now have an awesome recess bag, full of great
equipment. Any donations to our recess bag this
year are welcome.
!
We look forward to an exciting year.

Quest 6
Ms. Richmond, Quest Team Leader
[email protected]
!
In Quest English, we are working on our memoirs.
Students are focusing on adding a creative hook,
descriptive language, and an ending that is
reflective and memorable to the reader. After the
memoir unit comes to a close, we will begin our
unit on plot structure.
Ok, so what's been going on in Quest
science? We investigated the effectiveness of
sunscreens and as suspected, some block UV as
indicated by the SPF and some do not! We've also
gotten a good start to creating our science
journals. They will make great books for us to
read some day!
Quest math students are currently studying
proportional reasoning by working with ratios,
rational numbers, and equivalence. Proportional
reasoning is one of the most important areas of
mathematics for everyday life, the workplace and
scientific tasks. It underlies much of our math
curriculum, including work on percentages,
reading and making scales, reduction and
enlargement, similar triangles, construction of pie
charts, and linear functions. Ask your children
what they think!
Quest ancient civilization has been working
on asking questions, writing research questions,
and writing claim statements. We are currently
studying the Kennewick Man and the Terracotta
Warriors.

Voyager 6
Ms. Quirk, Voyager Team Leader
[email protected]
!
Voyager ancient civilization is off to a great start!
We have been busy perfecting our mapping skills
and can now say good-bye to all those GPS
devices we have come to rely on in the car. Just
be prepared that your son or daughter may
announce, “recalculating!” We are kicking off our
archeological unit this week and will be answering
life-long questions such as: what exactly does an
archeologist do, what are the steps of an
archeological dig, how does one date artifacts,
and who exactly was Otzi the “Ice Man”?
(Apologies to George Gervin)
Voyager’s math students have done a
wonderful job making sense of problems and
persevering with CMP3, our inquiry based math
program. They will wrap up the unit on Comparing
Bits and Pieces within the next week and begin
the Let’s Be Rational Unit, which focuses on
extending their understanding of operations with
fractions. The students will begin using their
MathXL For School accounts to access practice
problems as well as individualized study plans.
Voyager English classes began the year by
creating a book jackets for an outside reading
book and presenting these to our classmates. The
good news is, now, we have heard book talks for
at least twenty different titles for future book
selections.
Voyager English students have also been
brainstorming seed ideas for writing personal
narratives and composing paragraphs about
1
Clarke Team News
several of these. Written in the first person, the
personal narrative focuses on one situation and
the author’s thoughts and feelings during the
event rather than the event itself. Most recently,
we have selected one of these seed ideas to
develop into a memoir. Our next unit, Reading
Narratives, will focus on plot development and
characterization.
Voyager science has had a fantastic start to
the school year. The students have all contributed
to making a wonderful classroom to explore and
learn. We have started the year with learning how
to conduct scientific investigations. The students
designed and carried out their own experiments
that tested how effectively different types of
sunscreen protects them from UV radiation. You
may have seen them wearing their UV Bead
necklaces. Voyager students also conducted
observations of the surface of Mars.
As of this writing, they are investigating
matter as they measure the mass and volume of
solids and liquids using tools like graduated
cylinders and triple beam balances. In a couple of
weeks, we will wrap up this unit, and begin
astronomy.
Also, we enjoyed our Team Breakfast with
activities and games on October 23 here at
Clarke!

Explorer 7
Mr. Waldek, Explorer Team Leader
[email protected]
!
Happy fall to all Explorer families.
!
The Explorer Team is off working hard and moving
through lots of fun and exciting curriculum. In
English students are currently writing memoirs
and will begin reading the novel Stargirl by Jerry
Spinelli. Along with the reading will come lots or
random acts of kindness from your students, so
be ready to be amazed.
In geography the students continue their tour of
the world and are beginning to study world
climate and will soon kick off a survey of the
major regions of the world starting with Europe.
In math students have been wowed with
the amazing world of ratios and proportions and
will soon discover the wonders of fractions and
decimals. In science students have been
immersed in the study of the major organic
compounds that make up living things and will
soon begin a asking questions about the cell and
its structures.
!
As a team, Explorer students are continuing to
work on student habits including following
directions and being prepared for class each day.
We are looking forward to a busy but exciting fall.

Adventurer 7
Ms. Moll, Adventurer Team Leader
[email protected]
!
Welcome to the Adventurer Team! We
have been busy in all of our classes!
In science, Adventurer students have
gotten off to a great scientific start! We are
beginning the year with a discussion of the
scientific method; students are going through the
scientific process. while investigating the
germination of Chia seeds and subsequent
growth. Groups have chosen a variable to test,
designed an experiment and are measuring plant
growth. Students are currently taking data. Next
they will write a lab report incorporating all phases
of the scientific method. We are "budding"
scientists! Our next unit will be the characteristics
of living things.
Adventurer geographers have started the
year by learning the basics of maps and important
features of the globe.
In English class, Adventurer students are
combing past experiences as we begin writing our
memoirs. In line with the writing standards,
students are working on a first person narration
that uses imagery, dialogue, pacing, and
meaningful reflection. As we look to mentor texts
and model professional methods, we are writing
moving memoirs.
In math, students have been working on
proportional reasoning. Students have been using
diagramming to solve multi-step word problems
involving ratios and changing ratios. We have also
been discussing unit rates. A trip to the grocery
store with your child would provide a great
opportunity to discuss unit rates. In class,
students have used their knowledge of unit rates
and proportions to plan a math "party."
Up next is our fraction and decimal unit.
We will continue to use the diagramming strategy
to help us better understand fraction relationships.
Diagramming is a strategy we will use in multiple
units.
We're off to a great start and look forward
to a great school year!

Ms. Alexander, Endeavor Team Leader
[email protected]
Endeavor Team teachers have enjoyed getting to
know both new and returning students to Clarke.
We appreciate the enthusiasm and energy that is
brought to our classes everyday through lively and
engaging conversations.
In an effort to encourage students to
extend school conversations with you at home,
you might want to ask them about: current Choice
Reading material or the topic of the memoir they
are writing in English, the exploration of the
geography, history, and economy of Europe,
finding the unit price of a product while at the
grocery store, or determining the number of miles
your car can travel per gallon. Perhaps you might
even want to inquire about the independent
variable your child has chosen to test and the
effect it has on the growth of Chia seeds.
We hope you enjoy talking with your child
about the exciting things happening this quarter. !
Apollo 8
Ms. Gagnon, Apollo Team Leader
[email protected]
!
The Apollo team is off to a great start this year,
and in just eight weeks, we have accomplished
much!
In English, students are beginning Unit II
on theme development. We are starting with
some poetry to uncover not just what message an
author intends to create in a piece of art, but also,
how s/he develops this theme with the use of
elements and devices. Acting out "Caged Bird" by
Maya Angelou prompted some great group
discussions about topics such as freedom and
oppression. We will be moving on to The Outsiders
towards the end of October to try and uncover
what she thinks about the Greaser/Socials rivalry
and we will connect this to life here at Clarke. It
is an exciting time in English, and I look forward
to experiencing this story with our students.
In Mr. Frost's math class, we are studying
inequalities and functions. We're starting to use
the graphing calculators as well.
Apollo students have been busy exploring
physical properties and energy in Science during
September and October. In September they
learned about density-mass-volume relationships
and used tools from their measurement unit to
calculate each of these properties. In addition to
attempting to make a canister suspend in a tank
of water, we explored the graphical relationship
that shows D = M/V. Ask your eighth grader how
small a difference in density can produce an
object that floats instead of sinks.
Students also used their understanding of
density to practice writing a short response to an
MCAS question from several years ago. We
explored what makes a strong MCAS open
response and applied these observations. We are
near the end of an experiment-rich unit, exploring
the transfer of heat among a variety of
materials. Your eighth graders are learning to
become more thorough when they document their
observations in writing. They are becoming more
sophisticated interpreters of change in materials.
!
In history, students are beginning their study of
the Revolutionary War by uncovering the steps
that led to the Revolution. We always feel lucky
around this unit of study to be living so close to
the action!
!
Challenge 8
Ms. Kaw, Challenge Team Leader
[email protected]
!
Challenge team students have had an exciting first
few weeks of classes. Students have been working
hard and engaging each discipline with
enthusiasm.
How do readers affect the meaning of
fiction? How do authors influence our literary
interpretation? How can there be more than one
"correct" answer in English class? By learning
about inference and implication, Challenge English
(Mr. Miller and Mr. Despres) classes have been
exploring these questions. Over the course of the
Insightful Reading unit, the first unit of the year,
students have built up their powers of analysis
and inference, particularly in the study of mood,
indirect characterization, irony, and symbolism.
Then, they have been challenged to express their
literary insights in argumentative paragraphs that
lead us through the reason behind their insightful
claims. As a result, we have found that great
readers aren't simply consumers; they are
perceptive meaning-makers!
U.S. history students are working diligently
to master the skills of a historian. As the year
progresses, students will build on these skills.
Their ultimate goal of becoming “junior historians”
who are able to analyze a variety of sources, and
develop a strong thesis statement: one or two
1
Clarke Team News
sentence statements which identifies a claim or
argument for an essay and provides an overview
of supporting evidence.
During the first academic quarter, students
study European exploration, British colonization of
North America, and the road to revolution. This
content serves as a vehicle for the skill
development of identifying and analyzing primary
and secondary sources, evaluating the creator’s
intent, and identifying the hallmarks of a great
thesis statement—an essential part of the
research and writing process. Our young scholars
are off to a fabulous start!
Math 1 has tackled the foundations of
algebra and equations and is now wading through
inequalities, including compound and absolute
value, to round out first quarter. Math 1A is
working through equations of all kinds, including
absolute value, literal, and word problems, and
will be taking on inequalities next!
In science class, students practiced some
scientific skills such as measurement,
observations and inferences. They have also
explored other properties of matter such as
density. What causes an object to float or sink?
How can we use density to identify substances,
just like Archimedes used to prove that the king's
crown was not made of gold. Students conducted
hands-on experiments to observe behavior of the
physical world around them.
!
Discovery 8
Mr. Vincent, Discovery Team Leader
[email protected]
!
The Discovery Team is off and running!
In science, students have been exploring
the science of heat and heat transfer. They have
been lighting Bunsen burners, designed
experiments to explore the radiation of heat, and
learned about convection. It’s been hot, hot, hot.
Algebra I and Algebra IA have wrapped up
their Equations unit and are progressing to
Inequalities, including those with absolute value
and squared variables. We will be introducing
graphing calculators as a method for solving onevariable inequalities.
In English class, Discovery students are
finishing up a unit called Insightful Reading.
During this time, they are exploring various
literary elements, such as mood, irony, symbol,
and indirect characterization, as they occur in
stories by Kurt Vonnegut, Shirley Jackson, and
other fine authors.
US History classes have reviewed the
“beginnings” of North American history, traveling
in time from early Native American settlement
through colonial development in the Americas.
More recently, they studied the build-up to the
American Revolution and are moving toward the
war itself. As always, they will explore these
events from multiple historical perspectives,
diving deep into the world of primary sources.
