2003 - 2004 School Year

Religion

Vatican II

I chose this piece of work because I was really interested in the topic that I wrote about, and I think you will be too.

From this assignment I learned all about the changes made in the church by Vatican II and about the Popes that insituted the new processes and beliefs.

One thing I want to tell you about this assignment is that it was fun and very informative on the topic of Vatican II

Language Arts

Johnny Tremain Essay

I chose this piece of work because it is a quality essay with a lot of insight and thought, and I enjoyed writing it.

From this assignment I learned how to write an essay that is both persuasive and informative using a simple vocabulary.

One thing I want to tell you about this assignment is that I worked really hard on it, and that it was written in Jane Schaffer format, so excuse the weird way it was written.

 

Science/Math

Boyle's Law

I chose this piece of work because it is an

excellent example of my best work. It shows that I know

how to us different computer programs such as excel

paint.

 

From this assignment I learned how Boyle's Law applies

to our everyday lives.

 

One thing I want to tell you about this assignment is that

learning science and how to use computer programs at the same time is a great way to enrich your 8th grade learning experience.

Social Studies

Civil War Timeline

I chose this piece of work because it best displays my ability to organize information on the computer. It also shows what I have learned in social studies this year about the civil war.

From this assignment I learned about the battles, won and lost, of the civil war, and of the triumph of the union over the confederacy.

One thing I want to tell you about this assignment is that I researched a lot, and it took me awhile, so be appreciative of my hard work and refrain from the crude comments.
