What We Learned Today...December 3rd

Genius Hour assignment for today!

ELA: We kicked off our ELA period this morning with our usual half hour of silent reading.  I forgot to mention last week that the students did a great job meeting their point totals for the month of December, and as a result we will be celebrating tomorrow morning with a movie party.  For the second half of class, students worked on their Chapter 17 guiding questions for Harry Potter.  *Don't forget, that this assignment is due by the end of the day on Friday.

Phys. Ed: Mr. Fuchs took the students to the gym and they continued to work on Basketball by participating in different shooting drills.

Health: Students were given the period to continue working on their Body Image posters.

Science: Today we had an extra Science class right after lunch to finish up our lesson from yesterday about the human eye.

Genius Hour: During the last hour of the day, students worked on their first Genius Hour blog post, updating their progress so far.  Students wrote about what they've learned, things that have gone well or things they have had difficulty with and where they see their projects going.
