Second Semester, Week 6

"By persisting in your path, though you forfeit the little, you gain the great."   Ralph Waldo Emerson

It was great to have everyone back today.  Some still weren't 100%, but at least we were all here!

Thanks to Mrs. Mahoney for the wonderful breakfast today!  It was a lot of work and well appreciated.

Math:
Algebra ½ Students: We covered Lessons 85 - 88 today. Don't forget to complete the exercises and stay on top of your weekly tests.


Logic:
We covered Lesson 12 today and several students actually came to the board and worked a couple of problems!  Way to go!!!!  Complete the exercise for Lesson 12 and the review for the unit.  Next week is our big test on Lessons 1 - 12.

Literature:
Please look at the Guide to see where you need to be regarding your short story.  You should be well on your way with the plot, main characters, setting, etc.  This week please read "God Lives" and "The Teapot" and be prepared to participate in the group discussion.

Defeating Darwinism
I really enjoyed having you guys pair up and present the various sections of Chapter 5 today so we'll try that same technique again next week with Chapter 6.  Don't forget to outline the entire chapter because you don't know which section you'll have to present.


Mock Trial:
It's starting to come together in your minds and in our discussions.  I hope to have your roles figured out by next week, however, I may need just a little more time to see how you do with the upcoming assignment.  Look over the remaining pages in the MT Notebook and also try to determine which defense you think we as a class should take regaring Barbara Barrett: Self Defense, BWS, or Reasonable Doubt.  Remember, you have to provide evidence for which ever you choose.



Latin:
See Mrs. Richardson's separate email regarding your assignments.

Enjoy the week and weekend. 


Blessings and Love,

Ms. Sharon
