HUMANITIES
We've read chapters 4-7 of My Brother Sam is Dead. Now it's time to show what you know. Please answer the 8 questions in complete sentences. Do your best work: it will be graded.
Thanks also for getting your submissions in on time. We had 100% class participation! That makes us all winners!

MATH
Today we tackled eponents in class, which can be easy if you just remember one thing: Exponents stand for REPEATED multiplication, not a number times another number
6^3 is actually 6 x 6 x 6 (NOT 6 x 3)
so 6 to the third power (6^3) = 216.

Tonight, finish the worksheet on evaluating exponents.

SCIENCE
Today we talked about the potential energy of food, which we count by calories. How many calories do you need? How many calories do you consume in a day? You can find out by looking at the websites we started to explore in class.
