Week 22
Week 21 (1/29 - 2/2) Recap
Classroom Visits & Learning Celebrations!
In week 21, we had another great week of instruction, learning, and extra curricular activities. See below to see what our students were learning and doing this week.
Theater Arts
Our future actors and actresses practiced their One Act Play.
8th Grade Math
8th Grade Math students used the hallways to help learn about surface area.
7th Grade Science and 7th Grade English
7th Grade scientists used celery to learn about photosynthesis and 7th Grade English students had book talks about novels of their choosing.
Google Augmented Reality
Google, yes, THE Google, paid a visit to BBJH on Wednesday. They let us pilot a new augmented reality program they are working on. Needless to say, our students had a blast learning about moon phases, Roman history, and Leonardo da Vinci. It was a great day! ...special thanks to Coach Cullum for making this happen! Take a look at the photo below and click on the link below to see a video showing the augmented reality system in action.
