What We Learned Today...September 26th

After AR time this morning, we got right into the thick of our new ELA Broadcast studio assignment.  Students were broken up into groups of 6 and each group is responsible for researching someone who has "stepped up" or "taken a stand" throughout history.  Once each group has completed their research they will then create a News Broadcast that we will actually film at the Broadcast Studio at St. Peter.  During Grade 8 Math we briefly went over our Unit Tests from last week and began working on a square root assignment.

After Lunch the students continued to work on the graphing art assignment with Ms. Norris.  Instead of French today we continued to work on our ELA projects and will make up our French class on Friday.  For the last hour of the day the students learned another type of Football game and Ms. Norris took them outside to test it out.
