In Writing, students are wrapping up our portion of the X-Men and mutant part of our X-Men/Civil Rights Unit. They are analyzing how mutant discrimination is similar to historical events.

*PLEASE LOOK FOR MY AMI/ HOME SNOW DAY LEARNING LESSONS ON GOOGLE CLASSROOM.

We are learning about the Richter and Mercalli scales for rating earthquakes. We are using real raw data from world earthquakes to create data stories and build graphics.

Most of all, we made Kahoot games to present our key earthquake terms to the class!
