January 22 - 26

WEEKLY HIGHLIGHTS

PRESTON

Preston has been working on his math and language arts every day.  He finished a pretty cool water color as part of his language arts assignment.  

He's also been working hard on finishing driver's ed and learning his lines for the play Anastasia.  He took the written driver's ed test last week and passed it with 97%.  Now he just has to get his driving hours with the instructors and he will have his license!


MARISSA

Marissa conducted her first (of 3) interviews about heroes from WWII.  She interviewed the son of a man named Raymond Earl Casaday.  She spent about an hour talking to him and asking him questions.  Then she wrote up a Hero Spotlight, which she gave in class on Thursday.  She did a great job summing up the bravery and sacrifice that was made by this tough Marine.  


CALEB

Caleb finished reading "Orville Wright" for his book discussion in Ninja Scholars.  He loved it!  He was so excited to share his favorite parts in class and to participate in the trivia game to see which team remembered the most about the book.  He was especially excited when he and his peers all got plastic helicopters and foam airplanes to practice their own flying skills in the gym after the book discussion.
