I can't believe the third quarter of sixth grade is already halfway done! This week in Language Arts, students were divided into four different teams to begin the "Archeological Dig" project! Each group selected an ancient civilization that they will be keeping secret from each other. Over the next month, they will research and write a thorough research paper on that civilization before beginning the interactive phase of the "Dig."
In History, sixth graders learned about three key philosophies that arose in ancient China: Confucianism, Daoism (Taoism), and Legalism. They learned about each of these under the conditions that each 'philosophy' encouraged. Ask them how it felt to learn in such different ways! In math, we learned about percents, and percent of change. We'll have a chapter test next week. Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!
