Last week's basic facts quizzes went home with students today. Please look over, sign, and send them back to school tomorrow. See Friday's blog post for more info on the basic facts quiz. Book orders are due tomorrow. Thursday is Halloween, which we will be celebrating at BHS with black and orange day. The pillars of care assembly is at 12:30pm on Thursday. Notes went home with room 20's winners today. There is no school on Friday. Swimming forms and payment are due November 8 and theatre forms and payment are due November 22. We are taking another week off spelling to focus on our ongoing projects.
Morning recap:
This morning after ignite, we had a special guest speaker. Officer Kovacs, our school resource officer, came to speak to us about what he does as a police officer and how we can help keep ourselves and others safe, through things such as refraining from fighting and being safe online.
After our guest speaker left, we took a few minutes to draw a pumpkin design. Many classes in the school are designing pumpkins this week. The rule is that the design must be based on something we are learning. The pumpkins will be on display in the library on Wednesday and Thursday. Room 20's pumpkin is going to be about math because Halloween often involves scary things and many of us think that math is very scary! Alone or with a friend or two, we designed a math pumpkin. Once everyone was done, we voted on which design we'll actually use. The winning design was drawn by Joshua, Haider, and Gregory, and they will execute their design on our pumpkin tomorrow morning.
In language arts, we worked on our poetry anthology. After LA, We went to gym and then we finished the morning by going over our basic facts quiz (which needs to be signed and returned) and watching part of a long division review video.
