 WHAT HAVE WE BEEN UP TO?
In math this week, we reflected on Unit
11, which explored the ideas of ratio and
proportion. We also went over the Unit 11 Test.
We took time to clean out our math binders,
which had work from Unit 7, Unit 10, Unit 11, and
Unit 12. We also practiced and prepared for the
MCA math tests coming up in a couple weeks. We
have had a little break from math homework, but
the daily math homework will continue after
Exhibition.
We also continued with Exhibition this
week! Groups worked hard try to prepare their
display boards and PowerPoint presentations.
They also completed a plan for action on how to
help others with their issue. We are really looking
forward to Exhibition Day next Friday, April 29th!
We are excited to see all of their hard work come
together!
This week in DARE, Officer Just went over
facts about alcohol. Students are continuing to
enjoy their time with Officer Just.
Students worked hard this week and
completed the MCA reading test. Students will
finish up MCA Math and Science testing the first
two weeks of May.
We also celebrated Earth Day this week.
We watched a few short video clips and
brainstormed ideas on how we can save energy
and make the Earth better.
Have a great 3-day weekend!!
CAMP IS COMING!!
Be on the lookout for a VERY IMPORTANT
letter coming home next week regarding
Camp Widji. This letter will also have your
remaining balance - which is due by May 9th.
