Tuesday, May 10

5th Grade:  The students learned about the Underground Railroad today and the life of Harriet Tubman.  We watched a video clip that went along with their reading assignment (234-236).  We will also be having a vocab quiz on Friday.  Study up.

6th Grade: We had a discussion and debate about the Osama bin Ladin situation to begin class.  We also worked on our Napoleon Bonaparte resumes that are due tomorrow.

7th Grade:  We had a discussion and debate about bin Ladin and the students were given their rubrics for the WWII final project.  The rubric is posted under 'assignments.'  We will be spending a considerable amount of class time on the project which is due May 19.

8th Grade: The students learned about the powers of Congress today and watched a clip elaborating on its important role.  No HW.
