Friday’s Happenings – 9/16/11

Today in science we took the first science test of the year. The class was happy it was an open book test.
It was the kind of the test you have to understand the questions.
Science wasn’t the only test on Friday, vocabulary which is really easy if you study hard, was also on that day.
Our Special Class for today was library. We learned about how books are filed and who came up with the idea on
how to do this. This is called the Dewey Decimal system and was named after Melvin Dewey. This is how we now
are able to locate books quickly and effectively.
We did miss Mrs. Kuhn as she was not able to come to school, but we had a good day.
My Awesome 6th Grade!
