How was your weekend? Ours was awesome! We had our daughter and son-in-law visit from Santa Barbara. It is always so nice to see them! They were both running in the Sacramento Urban Cow Half Marathon. Lauren took first last year and made the course record. She took first again! AND - her husband Seth took first for men! Yep - it was an exciting day!
Guess who also ran the half marathon? Ms. Dowd!! YES! Way to go!!!
We had another great week! This week we will finish up our unit on Judaism and Christianity. Our test will be Friday. Be on the look out for the study guide Wednesday night. Our next unit will be Ancient Mesopotamia and Egypt. It should be fun!
In ELA we will begin our first mini analytical essay. Students will be writing about the theme of Prometheus and Lightning Thief and proving why Prometheus is a classical myth. We have been "capturing" vocabulary words in our word catchers to increase vocabulary skills. Hopefully they will use some of these words in their own writing.
