BEEING LEARNERS

The title is not a typo - it is a reference to the fantastic bee presentation we received from Maggie Science today.  It was inspiring and educational.  I linked her Prezi presentation below and the kids can tell you about the BEEHAVIOR movie she made with other students from her UMC entomology class.

Our morning was spent as readers and writers working on our Ecoliterature book groups and researched based opinion articles.  Students also prepared for an American Revolution quiz we will have tomorrow.  The essay type questions are listed below so students can practice framing their answers tonight with the study guide and their notes.
