The boys make their best "silly faces" while dressed in Ravens garb.
The 10-2 boys completed an exciting second week of school. They had their first Tenth Age homework sheet and spelling test, worked on a map of North America, and continued reading and discussing tall tales, such as Pecos Bill. In history, our studies focused on the land bridge and other theories about how the first peoples arrived in the Americas. The boys posed many insightful questions about this topic, which they will continue to explore. In math, we compared and ordered large numbers (up to the millions place). As a related activity, the boys took a look at the total attendance for several NFL teams during the 2011 season. They discovered that the Dallas Cowboys drew the most fans last year (1,258,971), while the Ravens finished with 1,083,902. The highlight of the week was a "Purple Friday" dress down day to commemorate the Ravens' opening game.
