Welcome to 9-A!

Here are a few more pictures of the girls in 9-A sharing what they are proud of:

Welcome to a new year! We are going to have lots of fun in 9-A. On the first day of school each girl will get an accordion folder to help her organize her papers. It will go home each night and come back to school each morning. The girls should work on labeling their accordion folders at home this week. Here is a picture of what the labels should look like:

What a great year it's been! We've learned about Ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, traveled to the Walters Art Museum, enjoyed a Taylor Swift podcast, performed Olivia Saves the Circus, completed a Biome report and presentation, celebrated birthdays, and played Crow vs. Canary games. We have grown so much this year, and we worked hard but had fun, too! Now it's time to kick back, relax, and enjoy the summer!

The Ninth Age enjoyed a field trip to Medieval Times on Friday. We ate with our hands and watched jousting while learning about the Middle Ages. What a great way to experience the things we are learning about in history!

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!
