KFC Reading by Amy

In KFC reading, we’re studying colonial times back then. Recently, KFC did a readers’ theater and might change plans to do something called “Struggle for Independence” which is more about the American Revolution instead of Sail America, which is learning about the colonial times back in the 1600s or so. If you like to learn, go ahead and research about colonial times and such. You’ll be interested for sure!!:D

KFC Writing by Giselle

This week in KFC (Kool Fun Cookies) writing we are working on the second of the four 5-paragraph essays that M assigned us.  The second essay is a compare and contrast essay, and requires that you get together with somebody else and write down the similarities and comparisons and differences of your animal’s threats and endangerments and threats. The second essay is due on the 3rd of February, this Tuesday. Also, this Tuesday, the whole Diamond (or Ruby Medal, depending on which one you chose) Medal is due. If you know that you are not going to be turning in your Olympics or your 5-paragraph essay on time, you have to talk to M so you can get an extension.

This week we are working on angles and how one number, now matter how big it gets, never reaches another number. About 3 months ago, we were working on parallel lines and perpendicular lines. Math has been allot of fun lately, but i think one page of homework due the next day would be nice.

12^th Man Celebration by Emma W

Last Friday, the whole school showed their seattle seahawks spirit! There were all the students wearing their seahawk colors and jerseys. Some middle schoolers had cameras and walked through the halls and the students who were in the halls yelled, cheered, and really showed spirit! Then, we all followed the cameras to the gym to make a big 12! (we were going to make the seahawks logo, but it didn’t turn out well.)
