I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service.
I acted and behold, service was joy.

Day 72

Sorry I didn't write on the last day before the Winter Break but I am sure that everyone heard about the Christmas Party we had. It was a lot of fun.

As for today:

AM/PM--Spelling pretest 16 Bonus words are Geometry and Parallel, DRA prep, and January books.
Daily Oral Language (DOL), Journals

Writing: Today we started our new unit: debating. This is a persuasive writing technique. As opposed to advertising, where we tried convince others to buy a product, debating will help students to convince others to their ideas and views on a certain topic. We will be doing this for a few weeks.

Math: Today we went over geometric terms.

P.E. With Mrs. Benson

We started a new book today "Redwall" by Brian Jacques.

Social Studies: Today we talked about the Intolerable Acts and the goals of the 1st and 2nd continental congress.

Class meeting:
Congratulations to our new class officers.
President: Kayla
Vice President: Bekah
Secretary: Kaitlyn

HW:
Read
Math: Page 330 #1-24 (25 and 26 for bonus pts)
