Today in 6A & 6B

RELIGION: As we have now finished Family Life for this year, we return to our Christ Our Life texts and the special lesson on Lent.Today we spoke in short about Ash Wednesday, which was last week, and why we use ashes to signify our repentance.

ENGLISH: Today marks the beginning of our Vocabulary week. In the interest of maintaining some of the patterns set at the start of the year, we will continue until the end of unit 15 for vocabulary, testing every 2 weeks. While we will not be having grammar lessons, students will now have more time to examine texts and write thorough analyses of said texts. Next week we will examine a piece of poetry and determine the subtle, and not so subtle, meanings.

LITERATURE: As we see our "gang" of wanna-be Egyptians, they are adjusting to life after a local child was murdered and are unable to play independently outside. On Halloween these youngsters finally find an opportunity to return to "Egypt" and a mysterious figure crashes the party.

SOCIAL STUDIES: Students wrote their Ancient Egypt test today. Those students who were absent will make up the test on their return to class.
