Week of April 8-12


 We are giving our presentations in health. For each presentation, the presenter needs to have notes about the symptoms, causes, how it's spread, prevention, long term effects, treatment. Here is a picture of Preston giving his presentation to our class!

Connor is giving his speech about Serbia killing Austria-Hungary's Prime Minister. The speech was awesome! (well, not for Serbia)
There is Preston giving HIS speech to the Austria- Hungarians. It was a 2 minute-long speech about how they are lying and they are the worst country in the war! (Awesome Speech)
Another picture of Preston giving his speech. At this time in the speech he was laughing because he was acting so serious, and he couldn't take it. History class was the best when people gave their speeches to other countries.
That is what the map looks like in 1915 for 4th hour. Germany has taken down Russia, and is gaining momentum in the war. 
In Language Arts, we are in our creative writing unit.We are given a starting sentence and we have to keep writing the story. We pass the story among our classmates, so it is fun to see how they end it!
In Health Class, we are taking notes for our disease presentations. We need to have 10 presentation worth of notes.

Week of March 4th

 In Language arts we are doing a fun activity to help us with our vocabulary 11 words. In this game you had to write to correct word on the board, then you got to choose if you were going to shoot the ball, or mark off another teams point. It was a fun game. In choir they earned a free day by getting so many marbles in the container so they got to do what  ever they wanted in that class for the day. In band class we got new songs for our spring concert. They are called Grease, and Visions.    It was para appreciation week day this week, so on Monday they decorated the staff break room with streamers and balloons along with food. In health we are finishing up our Self-Esteem unit. As you can see we are taking notes again.  Now it is before the test, and we are prepping for it.

Week of September 3rd

  In Life Science, we made observations on specimens. We had to identify two things that we saw, such as color, shape, spots, etc. Some specimen examples are Sea Cucumber, Pig Embryo, Frog, and Starfish. Later we reviewed our observations with the class. In Language Arts, we did book speed dating! First, we split the desks into pods. We were then given a stack of books. Then we picked out a book and gave it a first impression rating based on its cover and title. We read a little bit of the books and then rated how much we liked them. In the end, we chose whether we liked the book, loved the book, or hated it. We checked out some of the books that we LOVED so we could read them outside of class! On Friday during Power Hour, we went outside. We go outside on Friday if none of our work is missing or late. During that hour, most of us played nine square. Others walked around and enjoyed the nice weather. It was fun! In History, we learne...

This week in Power Hour we worked on school work and also did a class Kahoot. Kahoot is a super fun online website that we have used since 4th grade. It is not only a way to learn, it is also competitive which makes it fun and helps you learn. The Kahoot we did in class was about connotation and denotation, this was also on our Reading Terms Quiz that we had in Language Arts. In Language Arts we had a Reading Terms Quiz and our weekly Reading Log due. We also started a new book called "Freak the Mighty" by Rodman Philbrick.  This is personally one of my favorite books, it is about a very tall teenager named Max who is not is not very smart but very tall and  lives with his Grim and Gram. There is also another character named Kevin who has a disability with his legs and can't walk without leg braces and crutches. The story is about their adventures and the way another person can bring out the happiest and best out of you. In Science this week ...
