Christ - who shows us unconditional love!
S.S. Our class simulated the rate of
population growth today and will now use China as a way to look at
how countries meet the challenges of large and growing populations. As
demographers we will use a lot of statistics, including 2020 country
data from our Junior Scholastic World Almanacs.
Math - G-Math is working on
ratios and unit rates. They are doing "online shopping" and hunting for bargains. T-Math is getting into the meat of fraction operations.
Art - 1 point perspective: Students are designing a room.
Lit. - We wrapped up our nonfiction study with a reflective essay by Helen Keller. The class was amazed by news footage of how Helen learned to speak and read fingerspelling by touch. They are reviewing our unit by focusning on one of our articles and analyzing all of its non-fiction elements.
English - RESEARCH PAPER begins next week!
