In  Soleil, we have been studying Ancient History, so we decided that we would do Hieroglyph bookmarks. What we do is that we look at a sheet of Ancient Hieroglyphs on paper, then we put them onto a piece of Papyrus, specifically our names in ancient Egyptian.

Right now in Language Arts, both sides of the classroom are working on the history of the alphabet. We are choosing a letter to research  and then doing an infographic on that letter.  On the Whimsical Gorillas side, we are writing six paragraphs about our letter, where it originated from, and what it is in different languages. On Kim and M’s  language arts side, they are writing packets booklets  that include how old their letters are, and what stages of change their letters went through. The letter project is really fun and exciting for everyone.



6th grade math By Jake, Sydney and Ethan L.

In 6th grade math we are starting unit five algebra and recently finished unit three about dividing and multiplying fractions. We learned that it is easy to divide and multiply  fractions by following the rule K.C.P. which means, keep, change, flip, using this method you can easily multiply fractions and whole numbers. Our 6th grade math classes are divided into three groups in order, Mr.Barnes, Ms.Elena, and Mrs.Reeder.
