IA History: We've been discussing and watching an AEA series about "Outstanding Iowans."  Gymnast Shawn Johnson was featured; Iowa's 1st female
Chief Justice of the Iowa Supreme Court, Marsha K. Ternus; and several artists from Iowa.

MATH: Students received feedback on their C6 Geometry Test.  The entire class took a different version of the test.  They will receive their results on Friday or Monday morning. 

HISTORY:  Students received their C11 U.S. Consitution Review scores back.  We played Revolutionary War J-I-N-G-O.  I read a detail about the Revolutionary War period and the students had to figure out what person, place, or thing I was describing.  They've really enjoyed this educational game!!
