Week of 5/17

It was nice to finally enjoy spring weather again this weekend. However, the cooler May days have been helpful to us teachers!

Seventh grade will be finishing up their sex ed unit this week. Mr. Bender will have a class with the boys, while Mrs. Baarck will be with the girls. We will also be finishing our human body project presentations. The class will also begin writing their chastity essays.

8th grade is finishing their chapter on enery. There will be a test on Thursday, and our annual Egg Drop is on Friday. Get those creative juices flowing and save your egg!! :)

Week of 5/10

After a busy week preparing for Ghana Festival and our human body projects, it is time to get focused on our regular curriculum and finish up human body presentations.

7th Grade will hear a different system presented each day. The following day they will have a short quiz on the presentation. We will be done with the human body at the end of the week. After each day's presentation and quiz is completed, we will use the remaining time to start covering the material in our sex ed unit.

8th grade will be finishing their unit on light and will move into the study of heat and energy.
