New
In

Voices of Adversity.
In
social studies, students will learn about the history of Japan.
In
science, we will explore the magnitude of geological time.
Updates and Info
Students
identified and sketched fossils as well as correlated rock formations to their
ancient environments. They finished an essay on the history of China and are
just about done with final drafts of their rule to live by. They started
tumbling in P.E.!
With our speedy internet,
many students are hopping online for supplementary math through Khan Academy
when we finish our regular math lessons early. They all have logins and
passwords for this program. I encourage students, who are able to work, on Khan
Academy at home to fill in gaps in their math foundations or accelerate
themselves through grade level math. It's an amazing, free resource for families!
