Here's the recap of a day when there was plenty of energy (some +, some -).

---

• Today in Math class, we started off with a "What Year Am I?" Then we learned about fractions and how to fold paper into fractions. :) Chris Heubaum :)
  
• Today in Science class, we finished our energy poster and then we presented it to the class. As we presented, we learned about other types of energy. :-) Chris Heubaum :-)
  
• Today in Writing class, we learned about how we need to make a wish about the world, our school or the new year that is coming up. I believe that it was a very good question to write about. I decided to write about all three: school, the New Year and the world. When I turned it in, I felt good about my wishes because they weren't about me but everyone. :-) Nijuana Conway :-)
  
• Today in Writing class, we did a D.O.L. and reviewed possessive nouns. We kept editing our Last Stop on 63rd Street books. Then we got ready for gym. :) Fabian Gandara :)
  
• Today in Reading class, Mr. Maynard told us that we are going to read a book called The Book Itch, and how we will get a light bulb to put a wish on. Then we read Chapter 13 of A Long Walk to Water. We also learned about positive and negative mood words. We had a discussion about these words and worked on a Venn diagram comparing and contrasting Nya's boss with Salva. :) Devin Chadwell :)
  
• Today in Social Studies class, we had a debate on Pearl Harbor and read an article about it. CNN was mostly about what happened in the real world (ed. note: a new Cold War, Indonesian earthquake, etc.) :-) Jafet Cerritos :-)
