Math - We have just completed our unit on integers and students have completed a test and assignment. For March, we will be beginning our unit on Equations.
Language - students are now learning about literary elements of short stories. In February, our focus was on plot structure and students modeled different stories using plot diagrams. We also discussed theme and students read several short stories to determine what the theme or moral of the story was. In March, we will be learning about figurative language and completing more in-depth short story analysis. Students will be writing their own narrative using a Harris Burdick picture prompt.
Religion - We have just entered our season of Lent and students will be completing "My Way of the Cross" assignment where they will be reflecting on each station of the cross, reading passages from the bible and answering real-life questions about how they can grow closer to God.
Health/Media - Students will continue working on their assigned mental illness brochure.
Phys-Ed - Students are performing their gymnastics routines and will be starting dance in the up-coming weeks
Science - Our study of Fluids continues. Lots of hands-on activities and experiments are happening in class!
