We will start a new unit today in projects. The unit will cover different forms of energy, how potential energy converts to kinetic energy and how energy transforms from one form to another in the natural world.

8th Grade Reading: Flocabulary today....We watched "The Week in Rap" and had meaningful discussions about this week's current events. Flocabulary homework is due for 8th graders on Wednesday of this week.

7th Grade Reading: We watched the movie version of The Outsiders and talked about similarities and differences between it and the novel. Most of us agree that the novel is WAY better than the movie. Tomorrow we will watch Flocabulary and start working on our notes for our upcoming seminar on the novel. Flocabulary homework for 7th grade is due this Thursday. Poetry annotations for 7th grade for "The Wreck of the Hesperus" are due Wednesday of this week.

Writing: Root of the week is "luc" (Latin for "light); students will continue to work on their 3 Outsiders writing prompts and turn them in for grades this week. We will also keep working on sentence diagramming.

**I am in need of auction items!!! Any items donated are much appreciated!
