 Hi parents,

This week for creative writing we practiced for the KET exam. We did two short essays, which is what the KET exam asks for. Some students forgot to invite their friend to go camping in their letters.

In science, we continued along with adaptations. Test 2 will only be on adaptations.

In math, we started on volume. Some students tell me they are learning this in Chinese class as well.

In grammar, we had our modals II quiz on Monday. We started learning about possessive pronouns.

In Journeys, we read about cattle ranches and how they had to do cattle drives to Abilene. 

Have a good weekend
