Math-
This week we continued working on solving equations. We reviewed distributive property as we are going to be moving on to solving multi-step equations. If your student feels they are not understanding solving equations please have them come see me next week. MAP tests are coming up!
Algebra students will have their EOC the last week of April.

Social Studies –
This week we have been
exploring ancient Rome. As usual, we are
beginning with the geography of the region.
Students surprised themselves with how much they already knew – just by
knowing that Rome is in a river valley.
We will continue with Rome next week.
Please ask your students to
share the words they are learning as we explore Greek and Latin roots,
prefixes, and suffixes.

Science –
SLU Adventures In Medicine & Science Pig Heart Dissection Lab Field Trip is Monday, 28 March 2016. Parent volunteers are still needed. Please check your email for more information.
In Dynamic Science this week the students continued the human Circulatory System unit in order to prepare for the pig heart dissection field trip. Today in class they did an earthworm dissection to practice and develop their dissection skills.
The two learning goals for Circulatory System unit are the following:
- The student is able to describe the path of the flow of blood through the circulatory system.
- The student is able to describe the functions of the Circulatory and Respiratory systems.
The following vocabulary words we have introduced and already discussed:
Alveoli
Arteries
Aorta
Aortic valve
Bicuspid valve
Capillaries
Left Atrium
Left Ventricle
Pulmonary artery
Right atrium
Right ventricle
Tricuspid valve
& Veins
The Dynamic field trip to the Practical Anatomy and Surgical Education Lab at St. Louis University the students participate in the ADVENTURES IN MEDICINE and SCIENCE (AIMS) program to do a pig heart dissection. This is a top notch, state of the art dissection lab! The students will also see a comparison of a healthy human heart compared to a diseased human heart.
If you have any questions or comments please let me know.
