English

With Ms. Sveiven

In English, we learned all about different types of writing, such as narrative and informative. We read a novel called "The Giver" by Lois Lowry and many news articles, some fake and some reliable.

My annotated news piece:

This assignment was to figure out if the article was real or fake, I chose this assignment because it's very useful to learn these skills.

Solar System Slides

In this assignment we had to write summaries on every planet, this was my favorite assignment because I definitely learned a lot more about the planets.

In Science we have been learning about Astronomy and Non-contact forces! Students have studied the solar system, analyzed the planets, and created models of the solar system and Earth-sun-moon system.

Math

In 8th grade math, students have worked with Number Systems, Expressions and Equations, and Functions, and will be diving in to Pythagorean Theorem, Geometry and Probability and Statistics for the remainder of the year.
