Today in 6A & 6B

RELIGION: Today we spoke in brief about the story of Adam and Eve and the expressed instructions of our Lord to them, their mistrust in God's instructions, and their choice to disobey.

ENGLISH: Turning back to our vocabulary lessons, we now have introduced 20 Unit 2 words. In grading last week's test, I noticed that there was a lot of confusion about the meaning of some words. It is quite important that students spend some time studying their vocabulary words prior to their tests. Please rest assured that these tests only make up a portion of each student's grade and that over the long run, these scores will average out, however this should serve as a bell-weather to inform students on what amount of studying they will need to do in order to achieve the level of success they desire.

ART: Meet the Masters program started today - Van Gogh

LITERATURE: We continued the story of "Crash" today where we see an escalation in the behaviors of Crash and his peers as they bully Penn Webb. This lead to an interesting sideline about the "#MeToo" movement and the damage that harassment can do to victims. Students are acutely aware of the proper way to respond to unwanted advances.

SOCIAL STUDIES: Students performed their prepared speeches to persuade the Mayor and President of the City Council to make a strong and informed decision. Tomorrow as we conclude our presentations, the Mayor and City Council President will render their decision together.
