English
I am in Ms. Greene's English Honors class. We are currently learning hundreds of vocab words, elements of short stories, and how to write thesis statements. All of the vocab words that we are learning are form the SAT test. I love my English class because I love reading. There are so many books around the classroom and I hope to read them all!
Physics and Engineering
I love solving physics force problems! (MC dubs) in engineering and physics, I have a two hour long block period. We do so many labs and almost as many group projects! this class is the main focus of my website and every project that I have done so far has its own page. At the end of each project, we have a special visit by Mr. Williams' friend, MC Dubs! His raps about the wonderful world of physics are very inspiring and are very catchy!
Algebra 2
In math, we are exploring the many wonders of Algebra! in the first two weeks, we built a tetrahedron out of mailing tubes and string! In some class periods, we have combined forces with Mrs. Laabs' class. during these group classes, we have learned many new things and had guest speakers from Dominican University.
Spanish 2
Hola! In Spanish we are learning past tense and verbs. We are also reading Mi Propio Auto in class. I have learned a lot in this class so far and am very eager to see what we will be learning after winter break.
Drama
In Drama, we are getting in touch with our theatrical side! I have learned so much in this class. I have performed a scene, monologue, pantomime, and performed in the annual holiday show. This class has also provided me with experience being in front of crowds.
Geography and Health
In Geography, we learned all about places around the world. We explored each of the continents and the many customs that are there. At the end of each unit, we had a map test on the landforms, states, and countries. I have not started health yet.
