Social Studies: "Sparta vs. Athens: Where would you rather live?" That is just one of the many questions that we tackled this week in class. This upcoming week we will take a look at Ancient Greece's greatest rival: The Persian Empire. Question to think about: Should we only study history through one point-of-view?
Science: We have spent some time reviewing for our BIG Classification Test on Monday! Students have study guides, quizlet and a lot of new study strategies. Students also passed in their Favorite Animal Slides to their Google Classroom this week. It is a year long project and this is their first check point.
Literacy: What a busy week! Google Slide Show presentations are all presented, and everyone did a great job! The third unit of Latin roots was launched and don't forget, the test is on Thursday! Use Quizlet! Check Google Classroom to be sure that you are ready to submit your Aspirations paragraph!
English: This week students read the "Narcissus" myth in class, and they also began a mini project, requiring them to research roles, personalities, appearances, and symbols of the Greek Gods and Goddesses! Students did a nice job researching on the Chromebooks and adding information to their Google Doc. Next week, we'll read the last myth in our unit, and students will have more technology time to continue their projects. Don't forget to study on Quizlet for the quiz on Thursday!
Math: Don't forget, the Go Figure is due Friday, October 28th. You should be working on the final drafts in preparation for turning it in. This upcoming week we are starting Chapter 2: Rational Numbers. Be ready to work hard this chapter is going to take some perseverance!
