7th Science - We finished sharing our theories on why the beans had different spots on them when we were trying to grow them. Next week we will revise our theories based on feedback that we got from classmates about our theories.

8th Science - We looked at ionic and covalent bonds through work with dot diagrams of elements, and completed a lab trying to control the exothermic reaction of calcium chloride.

7th Religion - Yesterday we talked about the importance of prayer, so today we practiced praying during class using the following list as a guide:

Spend some time quietly thinking about how God has spoken to people around you – how have your parents, grandparents, mentors, or other people and how they described time spent with God.

Spend some time quietly thinking about times that God has definitely spoken to you in your life.  When was it?  What was happening in your life at the time?  What did God want to say to you?  How has that impacted your life?

Spend some time thinking about how God may have spoken to you within the last 24 or 48 hours.  When did you hear Him?  What do you think he is saying to you?

Spend some time thinking about how God may have spoken to you through what you have seen lately, what people have said to you lately, or what you have read lately?

Think about some things that will be happening to you in the next few days.  How could God be working through the event you and your family have planned?  What do you think God would want you to say or do during those events? 

Are there things that you have read in the Bible that stick out, things that you remember hearing or reading that seem really important?  (maybe something you heard in school, in church, in another book that quoted the Bible, a memory verse you really like, etc.)  How does God speak to you through those Words?

Spend some time in prayer right now and ask God to help you see ways that He is speaking to you and what He would want you to be doing.

Spend some time reading the Bible and praying about how God may want you to see ways that He is speaking to you and what He would want you to be doing.

Write down some things that stand out from spending this time with God so that you remember them.  If you do this in the future, you can compare the times that you spend with God and see how God is helping you grow in your faith and your walk with Him.

World Religions - We continued learning about Judaism while watching the Frisco Kid.
