February 15 - February 19

Tuesday- Quentin and Joseph presented, Joseph being able to change his day so that we still had two presentations. Quentin started by teaching us about French History, showing us the castle which has quick sand surrounding it. Joseph taught us how and when to use “por” and “para” in Spanish. He used a song for por, which he got the students to try and sing.

Wednesday- Katy and Natalie presented, Katy being a scientist with her lab coats. She taught us what floated, which the results for some were surprising, and she also showed us why a banana floats with the peel on and sinks when it’s off. Natalie taught us how the French Revolution was a huge part of history.



















Thursday- Rachael and Tiffany presented, Rachael telling us that the English Reformation was not about the language but the religion. Tiffany taught us about Irony and the three different types, which we found and identified examples of.


Friday- Chelsea S. and Victoria presented, both involving English. Chelsea started by teaching us about the major literary movements and the authors within each time. We were quizzed on which philosophies clashed and which authors were from which movement. Victoria taught us about the different common grammar mistakes, like compliment and complement, and how to use each correctly.
