Happy Thursday!

Eighth Grade Language Arts:

In Literature we have been learning about the Holocaust. We first met Anne Frank and learned of the struggles her and her family went through. Next we read the book: The Boy Who Dared, by Susan Campbell Bartoelli. Through the genre of historical fiction, we as readers, read about a boy named Helmuth, a German, who fought to stand up to the Nazi's propaganda.

Fifth Grade Science:

The 5P scientist have launched into the unit of Astronomy. We will be discovering solar system and the unique qualities of our planet.

I wish you a wonderful spring break. Make sure to enjoy your family and friends and of course the sunshine!

See you on April 12th!
