Week 5: STUCO and 9/11 chapel

 

This week in 6R, all of the STUCO kids that are doing red ribbon week went to the United Hebrew Congregation to learn about drugs, rx medicine,and vaping. So kids please don’t smoke and vape. You can easily get lung cancer from it because of all of the tar. Friday we have 4 different tests: a science, Memory, Vocab, and Math test.

Thanks for checking the blog! 😀

From Mrs. R -   

Always interesting to get the student's perspective (above).  Today we had a quiz in Memory and no Math test (but a quiz in Math came home in papers this week!)  The students quiz over vocabulary every 2 weeks as they have been exploring word parts and how the prefixes, roots, and suffixes give words meaning.  This vocabulary study replaces the spelling curriculum in J.H. and factors as part of the English grade. 

We are eager to have STUCO come back to classrooms after their experience to share of their learning from the local program which hosted several public schools and our students learning about staying healthy and away from drugs.  They will now plan Zion's Red Ribbon Week.

 

Other highlights

  **learning about dialect in Literature

   **Pastor Fieberkorn  led chapel on 9/11 and beautifully tied in the message of Jesus our Redeemer into a the service

   **long division!  We learned that one problem can involve 15 operation steps!  Ask your kids what Does McDonald's Sever Cheese-Burgers means.  G has moved into decimal division.  T will get there soon!

  **watching our Padlet videos in S.S. to teach each other about thematic maps

I love to see your kids support each other and help problem solve as we are working collaboratively.  We are learning the spiritual give of encouragement!
