Prime or composite? 6th grade students used a 100’s chart to differentiate the prime numbers from the composite numbers. If a number is composite, meaning it has more than 2 factors, it was highlighted. Now that we know our composite numbers up to 100, we can quickly find greatest common factors, common denominators, and simplify fractions. In addition to our football unit, the students worked on their team building skills with a game called “The Polar Express.” They worked in teams to transfer hula hoops from one end of the gym and back. It took communication and collaboration from everyone in order to succeed.Great job everyone! This Thursday, we traded our uniforms for some festive Halloween costumes and even the snow couldn’t stop us from pulling out all the stops! From pop culture icons and our favorite drinks to dressing up as teachers, we saw it all! We love seeing all the creativity, Happy Halloween! This Friday, the Junior High enjoyed a cultural experience. We began the day by celebrating All Saints Day Mass with the entire school. We then ventured to Pilsen to enjoy a wonderful lunch at La Cebollita in order for the kids to use their Spanish skills. The students all enjoyed their meals and spending time with their friends across grade levels. We then ventured on the the National Mexican Fine Arts Museum for a guided tour of the Dia De Los Muertos exhibit and to learn more about the history of this cultural celebration. It connects perfectly with the Catholic celebration of All Saints Day. ¡Feliz día de muertos! Looking Ahead...
