This week in Math class we are picking up where we left off before MAP testing. Students learned the different ways to classify and organize triangles: scale, isosceles, equilateral, acute, obtuse, and right. We will spend a little more time with triangles, but also work on classifying quadrialterals. Students will focus on being able to identify and sort parallelograms, rectangles, rhombi, squares, and trapezoids based on their attributes.

Global Economics, Trade, Supply Chain, We Made a T-Shirt Planet Money Activity
Students will be working on an interactive and hands-on activity that will help students to master the concept of trade, supply chain, and production as it relates to economics and personal finance. Students will use the Planet Money video series "We Made a T-Shirt" to track the complete production of making a graphic t-shirt from growing the cotton to shipping to a store near you. Students will then choose a product of their own to track and understand how it is created and possibly shipped to their homes.

know that Jesus shows us that we can conquer our enemies of sin and temptation through the virtue of truthfulness.
