Things we did, week 2 recap and things we are doing preview to week 3

The second full week of school proved to be both challenging and exciting. I am proud to say that all of my students have successfully set up email accounts and are now attaching word documents and composing emails with ease. Both 9th and 11th grade have completed research on their particular assignments and will be learning how to create i movies this upcoming week! My hopes are to have the i movies completed and ready to start presenting Wednesday, so send me positive vibes for hard work and focus on both the student's and teacher's side. :o)

We had our first Volleyball games and Football game this week, as well as our first pep rally and the students seem to really be getting back into the swing of things. pictures of all the events to come soon.

 Poetry group starts this week as well!

Highlights of the week:  1. Freshman block: completing all their research and creating wall posters for parent night. 

2. Connecting Tupac to Machiavelli, creating little historians one rap lyric connection at a time. 

3. Treon, and the rest of the drumline yelling "Let's Get Funky!" at halftime and the band performing their heart's out.



4. The middle school's and football team's awesome and outrageous energy at the Pep Rally!
