Homework for January 10, 2012

Happy New Year!  I wanted to post the homework for Tuesday!  Eventually this will become a class job.  Stay tuned.

Tuesday, January 10, 2012
1.  Math-  The students are supposed to construct their own acute and obtuse angles from the list given in class.  They should also complete the Dynamath homework assignment (pages 1-5)
2. Hoosier Hike #8, part #1- due Friday, January 13th
3.  Writing-  We were discussing descriptive writing and using details in their writing today.  The students were given the following prompt: 
"Choose a piece of clothing you own.  Now write a description of this clothing to your classmates, using as many senses as you can.  Be sure to include lots of details!"

If the prompt was not finished in class, they should finish this writing exercise for homework.  Thank
you!
4. Science-  Bring in a picture of someone you think you look like in your family.  We are studying heredity and genes.  This is an optional assignment.
