November 30th, 2012

This morning was the Language Arts test, after which we attended BYU's "Christmas Around the World".  It was incredible.  Thank you so much for driving, you wonderful parents!

Students learned about Togo, Ivory Coast, Morocco, and Algiers in Cultural Round Table today.  The Middle School French class conducted presentations.  Particularly funny was the student reaction to food names, such as 'fufu'!

MATH HOMEWORK IS EXCERCISE 4.  We did 3-4 more timed multiplication tests, as well as measuring for angles larger than 180 degrees.  It is difficult!!!  I gave a 'hair' analogy.  The angle is the amount of hair on the head.  The face can be seen in the part that isn't the angle being measured.  If that sounds like Double-Dutch to you, please see me!  We found two ways to measure the angles.  #1.  Measure the non-angle and subtract it from 360 degrees.  #2. Measure the amount of the angle that is greater than 180 degrees and add it to 180.  Either way, children must measure the angles!

READING HOMEWORK IS COMPLETING THE JOHNNY TREMAIN PACKET TO 155.

Mini-courses followed.

Have the best weekend!
