Look familiar? Many of us feel like Beaker in the months of April and May. There is so much to do. There is so little time. There is too much testing. Whatever it is that is happening at the moment, remember to find a way to enjoy it. There is always some little funny, kind, or special action or interaction right there in front of you. *\0/*

We are currently studying Human Biology through a simulated learning unit called Code Blue. Students study six of the seven body systems :nervous, circulatory, muscular/skeletal, immune, digestive and respiratory. Presentations within clinics has concluded on May 2nd.
The students have completed taking their Board exams for each of the six systems. Most recently, they are studying for their physiology test. Once they have passed, they proceed to Grand Rounds to discuss patient scenarios as physicians.
Math Matters:
Thank you for your support on the weekly math packets! The week of May 5-9th will be the last math packet of the year. They are SO excited! One gal even said, "I never thought this day would come."
During our regular math class, we are focusing on integers, coordinate grids, and order of operations. We are practicing to use a variety of manipulatives to understand concepts. Our textbook provides decent practice lessons and problems.
