Last week we held a friendly competition during composition. The girls each chose a food that they thought they could write descriptively about. Mrs. Bennett and I chose the most descriptive essay from each class and brought in a taste of the foods being described for everyone. Here is a picture of the winners!
Yesterday 9-A and 9-B participated in the Annual Ninth Age Egg Drop. The girls packed shoeboxes with materials found around the house that they thought would be good protection for an egg. Then they dropped the boxes from the balcony in the girls' gym. Everyone with a surviving egg got to do a second drop. That time they either had to throw their box over the balcony or slam in down from the balcony. The girls will write about the experience in composition class this week.
