Social Studies(Doms):
Today we worked in our ISNB and found three places that we would most like to visit. We found the lines of longitude and latitude for that place, the annual rainfall, elevation, population, and drew a quick sketch of each place. We also played a game of "Slap It" to review for the upcoming test on Friday. This was a great help and many students seemed very prepared for the test already!

Homework:
***Our Chapter 2 test is Friday. Study the vocabulary and reread the chapter.

Reminders:
***Stars in Service has a meeting tomorrow after school
***Our Fall Carnival is on Friday. Come join us!
***We are still taking golfers for our Make-A-Wish Golf Outing on October 3.
***My homeroom class has their Social Studies test tomorrow.

Until tomorrow...
