2014 SCISA Literary Meet

Congratulations to Anderson and Mary Mac for competing in the 2014 SCISA Literary Meet yesterday. Cathedral had two high school winners this year!
One idea is to use a shadowbox to showcase your collection.
Another idea is to use a crafting box to organize your collection.
The students were able to go to the Mobile Gem Mine today. It was a lot of fun! Because of this, they have an extra credit opportunity. If they create a labeled display of their rocks and minerals, I will replace their lowest notebook grade from Chapter 4 with a 100. Above a a couple of ideas to help you. Another thought is to glue your samples to foam core board. Be as creative as you wish! All projects need to be brought in by next Friday, February 14th. You are welcome to add other rocks or minerals that you might have collected from other places.

2/6 Homework:
Reading- study vocabulary
Spelling- parent test 17
Math- CW 165-166/ HW 90
