We had math tests for both 6th and 7th grade level math groups and BOTH groups averaged 95% on their scores! Wowie!
Apart from a final bit of assessment, we finished our unit on the Explorers this week with the students presenting all their projects: PowerPoints, websites, or Big Books. We learned a lot of information from the research everyone did, and we did some analysis of why explorers launched and the impacts they had. Now the students are writing fiction pieces based on their own explorers. They each get to choose the type of fiction. I will include the directions here.

We have our Banana Bash this afternoon, followed by the Art/Science Rotation, followed by Market Day. And math fun day to celebrate the fantastic success of the last unit!
We may work ridiculously hard, but we know how to play too!
Have fun tonight!
