Biographies & the Geography Bee

Students should be finished reading their biographies by tomorrow. There is a small group of students for whom this is not true. Students reading Queen Eleanor, Frank Lloyd Wright, Helen Keller and the Kheridian biography will all have until Monday to complete their biographies as these books were longer than most of the other biographies.

We’ll have time to do a quick summarization activity tomorrow and do a check-in on the bios.

We had a few students absent, who will complete the geography bee upon their return. As of right now, there are five students in fifth grade who have answered 6 out of 7 questions correctly. I’ll post more information once the absent students have completed the bee. I think students has a lot of fun and also learned some interesting information about places about which they may never have heard.
