1/18/2009

Friday was a fun day at school. Students and teachers wore their pajamas, I am sure we all wish every day was PJ Day!



This Monday we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. In homebase we have been watching an Oprah special on his accomplishments. This is such an awesome time to reflect and have some great conversations with your children. Here are some quotes :

"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."

"I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal."


This week in Pre-Algebra we will be taking our Chapter 6 Test on Tuesday then starting Chapter 7: ratios and rates.

This week in Course 2 we will continue with our daily quizzes on Integer Rules as well as explore rational numbers and plotting points on the coordinate plane.
