¡CINCO DE MAYO! The fifth of May!
Since this is my last year at PCA, we will
be having a huge fiesta/party to celebrate the Mexican holiday, Cinco de Mayo. We will be
doing this on Monday, May 5th! We are all making decorations, flags, and placemats. The 7th &
8th graders will be making piñatas for every class. This is going to be a day of fun, activities,
dancing, and food!
I am in need of bags
of small wrapped candy to fill the piñatas.
Would you
consider donating candy? We are also going to be eating lunch together. Could you help me
with a donation of money to purchase food? I’m thinking lunch will cost around $200. I would
love to have everything donated so the children wouldn’t have to pay anything for lunch that
day. Just let me know or put money in an envelope marked, “Cinco de Mayo.” Thank you for
any help or donations.
8th MATH: We have finished our Geometry chapter. We are learning the Pythagorean Theorem
and SOH CAH TOA!! We always enjoy the videos about these. They are funny but we do learn
from them.
7TH MATH: We have started Geometry. New this year we will be learning the surface area and
volume of 3-D shapes. Please make sure you are showing all your work on your formulas. It is
important to keep them lined up and be careful.
5th / 6TH MATH: We began Geometry this week. We will be learning about perimeter and area
of our shapes. The 5th graders will review dividing fractions. The 6th graders will learn about
the circle.
7th / 8th SPANISH: We will be learning about Cinco de Mayo and doing projects for our
party/fiesta!!! We watched a video about Cinco de Mayo and the Battle at Puebla.
