Wow, is May ever flying past fast!

In English Mr. Martin has finished the 1 minute speeches, and every student will need to bring a novel to read for 15 mins each class.  We are in the midst of picking our choices of end of novel assignments.  Stay tuned for more information.  We are also finishing up our poems, and we created one on "Anticipation"  Ask the kids how I gave each of them a candy that they couldn't look at, but had to taste (if they were not too scared).  I had them give 5 words to describe their feelings to my not telling them what they were eating, 5 to describe the taste, and 5 after wards.

See the handouts for a list of end of Novel ideas.

In Science, we are looking at minerals, and the earths crust, mantle and core.  We are watching a few videos, and then we will be in the science room testing rock samples based on a series of properties.  Both classes should have their tests back, as well as the latest vocab lists.
