Humanities 8 Museum Projects are due tomorrow! Wednesday, May 16. Amazing research has been happening, I can't wait to see the finished projects! Friday is Feast Day. I'm asking the students to research food from the Middle Ages that they could bring in to share. Costumes are welcome! Humanities 9 We are loving A Midsummer Night's Dream! We are taking turns reading, the kids are great. We are still having sales and fundraising for our service projects. An incredible amount of effort is happening with these projects!
