Comparative Advantage
This past week students learned about comparative advantage and specialization by using our favorite sports figures. We learned that Babe Ruth had an absolute advantage in both pitching and hitting, but he specialized in hitting, because that’s what most benefited the team (comparative advantage).

Human Trafficking
Students discussed the heartbreaking issue of human trafficking: we focused on the supply and demand of trafficking, and talked about what we can do to stop it. For example, is it better to focus law enforcement efforts on the supply side (those who kidnap and sell others) or the demand side (the customers/buyers)? Students weighed in on their own opinions after studying the data and reading articles from various advocacy groups.

Ronald McDonald Promotes Literacy
“Literacy” was the theme that was emphasized during Ronald’s visit to Evangel on Tuesday, May 19, 2010. The students sang songs, saw a puppet show and had a great time learning about “Book Time” and the love of reading. Ronald encouraged our students not to “play the day away, but to grab a good book and go on an adventure!” We are very grateful to McDonald’s for sending Ronald to our K-5th grade students to share how important it is to love reading and to read books with excitement!! We can’t wait until he comes to visit us again!!!!!! Thank you to the McDonalds Corporation for their generosity in choosing our school for their community outreach efforts.
Please visit our “Galleries” to view some wonderful pictures.
What Is Forensic Science
The Forensic Students will be constructing mystery stories to solve. Their mystery stories must include at least 3 chapter topics studied throughout the year. They will work with a partner and will do class presentations. They will also construct posters describing what Forensic science is.
Mrs. Christian
Fun Projects
Students will be constructing a variety of art projects for math. For the acuminating project, students will choose a personal favorite topic. They will construct a song, poem, or rap. The lyrics will be placed on small poster boards for display. They will also have an option to create a math game as an end of the year project.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
In celebration of a man who helped changed our outlook of equality and what it entails, students were split into groups of two. After choosing a quote from a bowl they had to discuss what they believed the quote meant and had to make a visual of the quote. The Poster had to include both the quote and a visual representation of the quote. This exercise helps students use symbolism, learn from each others view points (as some of the translations of the quotes differed) and to reflect on how Martin Luther King Jr. had a major impact on the world we live in today.
