What We Learned Today...January 21st

Some of the supplies from our Science lesson today!

We started off our morning with a half hour of silent reading from 9:08 to 9:38.  In ELA the students were given the entire hour to work on their "Matrix" blog post response. This was the last class to work on this assignment and it will be due on Thursday, January 23rd.  (Just in case anyone forgot, the kidblog site is: www.kidblog.org/thebrescianibunch-2/) In Grade 8 Math we spent some time going over the 5.1 and 5.2 assignments that were handed back and students were also given some time to complete their 5.3 assignment.  We will be having our Unit 5 quiz next Tuesday, January 28th.  The students were given a study guide for the quiz and I would reccomend that students begin studying a little bit every night this week.

After lunch the students had Phys. Ed with Mr. Fuchs and they worked on various basketball skills and movement patterns.  At 1:23 we had Science and investigated the difference between a Pure Substance and a Mixture as well as the sub categories of both.  During the last hour of the day the students had Health and they were given the hour to work on their career poster assignment.
