Language Arts:
Students went to the Book Fair to preview selections. I am giving homework passes to any student who purchases a book for me and themselves. We also discussed that the 1000 word research paper is due on Monday, and how important it is to do some work on it each day.

Social Studies:
Students in 4th hour presented Hammurabi skits. Student in fifth and sixth hours read and discussed the Akkadian and Babylonian Empires. No books for any classes need on Thursday or Friday.
DOG: What " measure" did we get from the Sumerians that we still use today?
