Reading
We are finishing up with Literature Circles this week. Wednesday is our big presentation day. Students got to choose how they are going to present the book they read. I have everything from puppet shows, book movie trailers to book talk shows. I am very excited to see all the creative ways the students come up with to get their fellow classmates excited about reading.
For our March reading project, students will be picking a book to do an independent report on. I will post instructions on Edmodo either at the end of this week or at the beginning of next.
Math 1
The class just finished up Topic 9 with a take home test that is due Tuesday. Next stop, Ratios. Because this is a "B" week, there will be math class 3 times this week. This also means there will be math homework 3 times. Make sure you are following Edmodo. All assignments will be posted there.
Science
In science, we are working on our Density unit. The students are memorizing the formula, along with exploring all the different facets of density. Just ask about the burning pennies and the floating diet soda :)
