We have a clue! Today, we saw the exciting ending to Get a Clue; a film based on the Newbery Medal winning book The Westing Game. It was fun seeing spunky 12-year-old "Turtle" Wexler in the film trying to win the game set up by the mysterious Mr. Westing. Although the movie was very different from the book, we enjoyed watching and taking notes on differences and similarities. Many had their papers filled and needed a second sheet! We began our four paragraph comparison essay and will work on editing and typing tomorrow.
Today's message for Red Ribbon Week involved us bringing in canned goods for our local food bank. What an outpouring of generosity! So many students and teachers contributed! It was so nice to see! Tomorrow, we are to wear our favorite team jerseys! We are teaming up against drugs! Once again....LET'S WORK TOGETHER!
We concluded work today on our Terra Nova tests. It appeared that everyone was working hard and doing their best. Great job!
Homework:
ATTENTION! I AM TYPING THIS FROM HOME BECAUSE THE INTERNET WAS DOWN AT THE END OF THE DAY. THEREFORE, I MAY BE LEAVING THINGS OUT! HOPEFULLY, EVERYONE COPIED THE ASSIGNMENTS FROM THE BOARD INTO AGENDAS.
