Important Fun Lunch Information


There will be NO SCHOOL on Friday, April 14 in observance of Good Friday, and Monday, April 17 is a Professional Development Day



Today in Language Arts we focused on personification.  Personification is giving human qualities to an object or animal.  Eg:  Lightning danced across the sky or A shovel groaned as it loaded gravel.
We will be using personification in our Tanka poetry.  Tanka poems are usually about nature.  They follow a specific syllable rule.  Ask me what the difference between a Tanka and a Limerick is.

Good work to those who prepared for our French Test today on Les Formes.

In math we completed several logic problems.  Ask me what surface area is and how many sides are on a rectangular prism.
