Welcome to another Friday edition of the 7th grade blog. Today we finished our Monet video and checked out a funky (for lack of a better word) web site about Monet's art work. Check it out at www.monet2010.com. We also had a nice short lesson in math (which was good since yesterdays was loooong) about taking care of literal equations. All that means is rearranging equations to solve for a different letter. If A = B + C then B = A - C. In geography we started looking at the history of East Asia and I went on and on about Korea, and Vietnam and World War II and so on and on. I just had so many things to share! We also got 'spacey' in science and looked at some of the space craft that NASA designed to work for 3 months to two years and were still going 30 YEARS LATER! (Speaking of rockets North Korea's failed. )In English we reviewed and then looked ahead to the principal parts of verbs. We will get fully into that on Monday.
