HAPPY LAST WEEK OF SCHOOL!!
The end of this year is by far not what we planned, but I will miss your class so much. Make sure to stop by next year to visit!

The last week of 7th grade is (usually) our big Medieval Fest, where we learn about Medieval times, play Medieval Games, watch Medieval movies, dress up in cool Medieval outfits, and have a big Medieval Feast. I'm sad that we cannot share this experience together as a homeroom, but the entire grade is going to participate in a "Virtual 7th Grade Medieval Festival" from the comfort of your home instead!

Attached is a Slideshow with various activities for you to choose from throughout this week. Each day, choose 3 activities (in any order) that interest you. Then, make sure to fill out the Google Form (attached) to keep a record of your progress. When you are finished with all of your required assignments, complete the final 2 reflection questions on the Form.

You will be able to access this form everyday to update. Make sure to take pictures/videos of your creations and upload them via FlipGrid!--see slide 3.

Have fun!!
