Aylla is creating a FlipGrid to share with the class.   This is a photograph of Zach Petersburg, Lukas Pepin, and Sam Borgstrom. They are in Mr. Johnson's Life Science class creating FlipGrid's. 

                             In language on Thursday we were playing a game to practice our vocab.                     In this photo Alyssa is throwing a ball into a basket to get to erase two x's on the board. They are writing down there word and if they get it right they get to erase an x or throw to erase two x's In math class we took a test on equivalent ratios. An example of what a question would be like is knowing the height and length of a shadow of a object and then using that to find out the length of a shadow on another object only knowing the height. In science class we watched a video about animals  and how they help each other and then wrote a two paragraph essay on it. In history we took a test on president Jackson ad decided if we thought he was a good president or bad one.

 This is Isabelle, Lorelei, Owen H., and Brittian doing goose chase an activity we do in language to learn our vocabulary words.  This is Aylla, Owyn F., Zach P., and Carson doing goose chase. We have to find and create our vocabulary words and then submit them to the game. We really like it!  In science, we had a self-paced pathogen assignment.  In math, we are learning about ratios and proportions.  In History, we are learning about the War of 1812.
