We finished our study of soils today in science. The test will be on Monday.

We will continue with Call of the Wild in Literature tomorrow. I shared with the students today, that Chapter 4 has a section that many students find confusing. The author talks about Buck, the main character who happens to be a dog, is imaging sitting by a fire with a different man. This different man is a vision of man in the past. The author is trying to show how Buck is reverting to a more primitive state, going back to his instincts from many generations ago. Many students find this part confusing.

In Christ Light we started a discussion on what do we say to people who do not believe in Jesus as their savior.

The last two days we also had a good discussion about the election process, the electoral college, and we looked at a map that shows how each area of the country and state voted. You can find it at http://www.jsonline.com/news/president/33840019.html

Most of the students made good use of their study time today. We are continuing to work on improving transition time.
