What We Learned Today...February 26th

The results from our Murder Mystery yesterday!

ELA: In preparation for our upcoming mystery skype next week, we had one final practice session in our classroom.  For our practice, I headed to another room in the school while the students skyped with me and tried to figure out which city in the world I picked.

Interrogating a suspect yesterday

Phys. Ed: The students headed to the gym and officially began their unit on badminton by participating in an activity that taught them some of the basic skills for the sport. 

Social Studies: Students were given the forty minute period to finish up their "What in the World" Oil assignments from yesterday as well as their colonization unit journal entries. 

Career Ed: We continued to learn about Resume's today and focused on the three "F's" of resume writing. (Function, Form and (e)Ffectiveness)

Science/Month End Assembly: During the last hour of the day we had a brief Science lesson and the students continued to work on their Plant and Animal Cell Drawings.  At 2:50 we were called down to the gym for our assembly and students were recognized for achievements in AR as well as Girls Basketball.
