Wow, is it really June 1 tomorrow??
We have been very busy in Green team these past two weeks.
The Math 7, and some Math 8 classes have all had recent tests. The grade 7 boys are now working on an introduction to Statistics, including concepts such as mean, mode, range, and median. Recently, Mr. Martin let the boys who were more advanced in Math move ahead at a faster pace, and as such, they are working in small groups to teach each other some more advanced concepts. They are enjoying the feedom of choice, but are still keeping on task.
Socials: Mr. Martin's class has wrapped up Mesopotamia, and we are watching a series of videos, starting with Queen Nefertitti. The final outcome I want the class to explore is to "analyze social roles in ancient civilizations"
Science: We will be ending the year looking at minerals, the layers of the earth, and plate techtonics. Both classes should now have turned in their last science lab for the year on identifying minerals, and we are watching a series of videos and taking notes on them.
In PE, we are trying to finish Track and Field, before moving on to softball and tennis to wrap up the year.
