Class Update
This week our class continues learning on many fronts. Specifically, we wrap up Ch. 8, The Colonies Unite, of American History and take a test on Thursday. The study guide was sent home last Thursday. In Science we will finish our Unit of Study on the Water Cycle, which focuses on California's water and conservation. In reading we continue My Brother Sam is Dead. We are also working on our American Revolution Hero Power Point Presentations at the computer lab. Spanish will resume on Monday, as well. That's it for now,
Mr. Sweet
