Poems

This week we are talking about God had a plan from the very start to bring us back to Him.  He never left, but our sins have seperated us.  Here is a beautiful illustration: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBhI2HZeRX4

In science we looked up possible side effects for cough syrup and caffeine.  We also looked up how much caffeine there was in certain sodas.  We learned the difference between over the counter drugs and illegal drugs and the possible negative side effects in both of these.

In writing we talked about how repetition can be a writing tool.  We worked on our poems.  Please don't forget that on September 24th the students have two poems to turn in for a writing grade.

We took our verb test today and in reading we started working on a compare and contrast booklet for our reading books.


Our quote for today is from Clay Shirky, "“Our social tools are not an improvement to modern society, they are a challenge to it.”
