Quote of the Day - Bringing a little inspiration to your day!
Inquiry into Math:
Today we went over the answers for the our Show What You Know Review in our Math Makes Sense textbook on pages 344 - 345 # 1-8 10-12 for our upcoming math test. Some of the students still needed some practice finding the circumference of a circle, so we completed a couple of practice questions as a class.
I am sending home an additional review package this evening. The task tonight is to work through as much as they can and to come to class with any questions that they have concerning the review package. Additional time will be given in class to make corrections on their review. We will take up the review questions on Thursday.

Today we practiced for our upcoming Christmas concert. The class has been working very hard to learn the dance routine. We even added some new moves today!
We will continue to practice our staging and lighting with Mr. Oliver and his technical crew throughout the week. We can't wait for you to see the big show!
