Today in 6A!

ENGLISH: The last section of our Grammar unit discusses Verbals. While I think it is important to review this material and understand how they function in a sentence, testing on verbals would be quite difficult and would likely serve to blunt the scores on this week's test. Therefore Verbals will not be tested in this week's grammar and vocabulary test.

RELIGION: Students today rewrote the 10 commandments in their own words. Then, while looking at the originals and their own interpretations, developed slogans for a campaign that would advertise a chosen commandment. This was a fun activity that helped us think of these laws in different ways.

SOCIAL STUDIES: Today we took a break from our regular lessons to participate in the school's Geography Bee. At this level, all students participated in a oral test to select our 6th grade candidates for the school-wide Bee. From 6A, Matteo Medlin will represent, and from 6B, Ava Boyd. The results from the Bee are not counted as part of their grade, however success at the each level does result in greater recognition and eventually scholarships. Best of luck to Matteo and Ava!
