This week was super fun! We had the people from the boosterthon come in and talk to us every day this week about characteristics of being a hero. Focus, self awareness, respect, trust, worthiness, creativity, and life learner were all the virtues of being a hero. Today we had our fun run. Everyone in our class ran 35 laps or more! Pledging for funrun.com continues until next week Monday.
Today we picked the people for our Revolutionary War project! It is due April 23. We are really excited for it! We will have a math quiz next week. We were learning about helping verbs. We learned a very cool song about it. We had Forward testing this week. We were training like a BOSS and testing like a CHAMP

We did many tests on Tuesday. There was a science constellation myth project that we presented to the class this week. Today we leaned past, present, and future tenses. We started The Birchbark House in ELA.  It is about a young Ojibwe girl names Omakayas and her family.
We had a pep rally for our 8th grade girls in the Padre.  Our class made them locker decorations to wish them well.  We are reading "The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane."  After we read each day, the class has a trivia question from the chapter to answer.  We draw for a winner each day and that student wins a Jolly Rancher.
