The next three weeks in class:

History: Students will begin a four-week study on Arizona history. This is part of the state mandated curriculum. Students will also continue work on the Europe Project.

Science: In science over the remainder of the quarter, students will continue their study of meteorology. Students will learn about air pressure, wind, fronts, thunderstorms, hurricanes, and tornadoes. As a demonstration, students will learn how to build and use a barometer. In groups, students will  use anemometer.

Language Arts: In Literature, students will discuss whether or not they feel Robin Hood is a hero. This is the precursor to a larger discussion at the end of the book. The quarter finishes with a reading of Pollyanna. In grammar, there is an assessment on chapter 8 this week, then students will write a personal narrative essay. In Spalding there are more words and more markings.



Math: Students will enter a three-week review session, wherein they will revisit the concepts that have been taught thus far. There will be nightly homework.
