Today we had a diverse math time...We had a tornado drill, and the students were excellent.  I had a group taking a retest of + and - of fractions.  A group went to AG, and I taught a group how to multiply fractions like we did when we were kids.

In ELA we learned how to compare two stories for setting, plot, problem, solution, images, theme, characters, point of view, perspective, and fantasy (literary) elements.  We also continued to work on our poetry menus.

In Science we started a fun writing assignment.  The kids will choose which body system they want to research.  They will then write a letter as if they are that body system, and describe how to make "themselves" healthy.
