He is Risen! Alleluia!
I hope you and your families enjoyed a beautiful celebration of the resurrection and some down time over Easter break. We are back in the swing of things in 6th grade and are eager to learn. Here are a few of the highlights:
Religion: We are continuing our study of the Passion of Christ. We also looked at other World Religions through a webquest to see what others teach about sin and forgiveness.
Literature: We ended our poetry unit with our Poem Presentations and students did a great job of selecting entertaining and thoughtful poems to share with the class. Come see our wonderful designs in the hall (They'll be up after Monday.) Next up: Novel study
English: The drafting of the research paper began in earnest. Students have the first draft due Wednesday.
Social Studies: We learned about the Chernobyl nuclear disaster as an example of transboundary pollution in our look at Europe.
NEXT WEEK:
PE Fitness testing (and we'll get to serve by helping the younger grades)
Spring Casual Pictures (See Banner for info. Our pictures are at the beginning of the day, Thursday)
