The Terrible Awful is Over:)

That's right - We completed the Benchmark and now have an end in sight! My homeroom had perfect attendance (Good Job!)  and Mrs. Stewart's class was very close to perfect!
*WE DO HAVE SCHOOL FRIDAY, APRIL 18TH***

Lately, in Math, we've been looking at tables, graphs, and creating equations for given situations.







In Science today, I knew the kids were burnt out from test taking, so we reviewed the forms of energy using a combination of games (really dug into my teacher flexibility here to make it fun for them!) I heard plenty of, "This is so fun!" comments, so I hope it was a winner...we played using index cards-similar to the Headbandz game-in 3 rounds. The 1st time they could only use verbal descriptions to get their partner to guess the energy form, then only picture drawings (no words), and finally, they could only silently act them out like charades.
