Week of 12/8/14 Update

     This is the third weekly update written by Max VS. and Nate H. about how Max and Kam's class 2014-2015 is doing!
     New Assignments: This week everyone continued to build their tools to make life more fair. Other than that, we started our annual festival of life project, in which we all need to paint and decorate a bottle to display what brings light into our lives, for Hailey HH's design of a 'bottle tree.' This is a project for her unit, as well as the rest of the class.


       News: On Friday, we are going on a field trip to Bald Mountain, near Boulder, where we will be experimenting with fire. Here is a map of Bald Mountain:                                                                                                                                   

The Holiday walk is next week Monday. For those of you that don't know what this is, it is a where the AS classes get together then make groups and walk around the 16th Street Mall all day.

We appreciate you reading our weekly class update!


-Max and Nate

Week of 12/1/14 Update

        This is the second weekly update written by Max VS. and Nate H. about how Max and Kam's class 2014-2015 is doing!


  New Assignments: This week we had a few new assignments. One of them was the math-science challenge, where we had to create a working tool that makes life more fair. There were many interesting ideas that came out of this assignment. Another assignment was the Kandinsky water colors, which challenged us to create a water color picture with a new style. This style was emotion through colors. On Friday morning we talked about ideas for community service projects in the coming months. Lots of good ideas came up.   

        News: Thea is now a part of Max's class this year! Everyone is very excited for her to join our class for the rest of the year. Two book groups had their last meetings this week, which were the Lord of the Flies book group and The Hobbit book group. As two of them ended, one of them started: Kindred.

        
Thea, our new classmate.












We appreciate you reading our second weekly class update!

Hi all,

Great discussion on Tuesday about unfairness and the responsibilities of being "closer to the trashcan." Looking forward to reading your slices about a time in your life that was unfair.
