Another Full Week!



This week, has been busy as usual in the 8th grade, doing lots of cool projects and learning new things! In science, continuing forensics, dropping a blood like substance onto large pieces of paper, taking measurements of the splatters and comparing our data. In math, we did an experiment called "Barbie Bungee Jumping." We had to figure out how many rubber bands it takes to drop a barbie 400 cm without smashing her head. In Language arts, we are working on turning ordinary boring paragraphs into wonderful, engaging ones! Then today, Friday, we had an all school Affinity Fair. It was a great chance to learn about the different affinity groups. Some examples are, Jewish Affinity, Asian and Pacific Islander, Bi-Racial and Multi-Racial, and many more. Each group talked about what they would be doing during meeting times, and how the group would be run. After a full week, its time for a relaxing weekend!
