Thursday, 10-20-11

Today is Thursday, October 20, 2011.  Nothing too exciting happened in Geography or Math, but in geography, Mr. Hostert showed us something that made the news. You can see it by clicking on this link: http://www.cnn.com/2011/10/20/us/ohio-animals-on loose/index.html?iref=allsearch 
In Reading today we learned about mood.  Finding the mood of a story or poem.  It can be difficult at times, but that’s why we’re practicing it.  In English, we learned about sentence structure and how it can affect our writing and how we speak.  When you use the vocabulary words you learn in school, outside of school it will make you sound smart.  Even if you use them in school, you’ll still sound smart.  That’s what we mainly learned in English today.  Study Hall is next after English.  During Study Hall, Mrs. Morrow brought in students and teachers from Cedar Rapids and they asked Mr. Hostert and our class a few questions.  Other than that in Study Hall was just a normal Study Hall. 

At lunch Zach and Cameron tried to beat a record of how many pops they could drink in an hour, unfortunately for them, they got the pops they didn’t drink taken away.
To start off Science today we got a “Respect your temple” speech to go along with Zach and Cameron’s attempt to break the record of how much pop you could drink.  Then we got a “If everyone does it, no one will be weird speech” with a song. (Which was the highlight of the day.)  

After the fun, we got straight to work and worked on grading the Cowboy Day Science video and then a Teenbiz was assigned for homework, but most of us got it done in class.
In Ag class, we read and had a short assignment.  Soon after class ended, there was yet another fire drill.  After the fire drill, we had P.E./Basketball.  We had our usual warm up and then did a few dribbling drills, shooting jump shots, and then did a little bit of conditioning.
Also, the football playoff score was O’Neill Eagles 20, St. Paul Wildcats 26.  That loss ended the season with a 2-6 record.  Good season, Eagles.
