Weekly BLog
During ELA this week, our homework load was rather light. Not only because we had a field trip on Tuesday, but also because this week is the holiest week of the year, hence the name, "Holy Week". Not many people last week got all of their homework done by Friday, so Monday was basically a day to catch up on any missing work. Tuesday, March 31, was quite the "rude awakening" because of our field trip to the Columbia Space Center, in the city of Downey. Since this is so far away from St. John Eudes school, we needed to arrive at school extra early that day. The Columbia Space Center opens at 10:00 every day, and it is a 2 and a half hour drive with traffic, but little did we know that there was not going to be any this early in the morning. The drive ended up being about 1 hour and 20 minutes, and we arrived at the center an hour and a half early. Nonetheless, it was such a great experience and I learned so much about how hard it is for spacecrafts to be controlled, by the people inside the spacecraft, and for mission control/ground control. It taught us all that collaborative working and teamwork are very important problem solving strategies. On Wednesday, April 1, we took an assessment on the Nominative and Objective case Pronouns. Most people finished early, so we still had the entire class to work on missing assignments or late work. And finally, on Thursday, April 2, or "Holy Thursday", the entire school attended a Mass service in honor of Good Friday and the upcoming Easter Sunday. Friday was a no-school day, and the start of our spring break. It was a very quick week, and very enjoyable as well. I hope you all have a wonderful spring break and a blessed Easter Sunday.
