Happy monday everyone!
Both 7th and 8th grade did great on their first quiz. Those that are not happy with their grade know what is required for a retake which will occur tomorrow (9/25)
Both groups are also in full swing on their first project. I am pleased with the progress thus far and hope to begin presentations this thursday. 8th grade is preparing to “sell” the class one of the original 13 colonies which ties into their lessons on ethos, pathos, and logos from language arts. 7th is working on finding a good place for the human race to survive and start over after a major disaster that changes the shape of the continents. This project ties into science as well as recalls some of their geography skills from last year.
IXL scores and quiz scores are in the gradebook. Many still need to finish their ixls. I will be posting the next set of IXLs tomorrow on classroom for them.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Have a great week
Mr. Kerry
What is going on in STEM apps?
AH! Yes sorry I did neglect to post about that!
We are building 3 dimensional cities using geometric shapes. I will post some photos today or tomorrow of the progress so far. We are having some internet issues today. Next week we begin research for a competition between other schools called “Future Cities”
