In 2nd grade math, we've been practicing measuring using American (inches, feet, yards) and metric units (centimeters and meters).



Middle school ag students practiced their communication and public speaking skills. We learn to know and understand that voice, presence and expression are used in communicating effectively. Also that speeches may be informative, persuasive, or special occasion. Students are then practicing effective public speaking characteristics. They will develop and present an informative speech.
