20 of 29 Woodblock racers made it in today to be lacquered then photographed. Still waiting on the final 9 before posting them all on the website for voting purposes tomorrow. As for voting, it is going to be tough, as the racers all look amazing in their own way.
As for the at school learning today, the students started their day with the BrainPop Civil Rights video, followed up by the challenge and the quiz, then a viewing and discussion of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I have a Dream" speech. After DPA the class headed back inside and out of the rain to read this week's novel on Martin Luther King, Jr. Just before lunch hour the students got started on putting the final touches on their Woodblock Racers and calculating the area of their cars in sq. centimetres. The afternoon was occupied with DPA and creating tent cards to help display all the students racers.
REMINDER: Any student who had not brought in their Woodblock Racer need to have it in by noon tomorrow, so that we have enough time to photograph and film it for the car show.
NOTE: Parents who would like to order a copy of this year's Division 7 student composite photo, can let me know by emailing me at: [email protected] and once the link is made available, I will pass it along.
