Send me your research on your historical person for the Facebook project. Be sure you're just filling in the information on the worksheet from last week. Once I've told you that it's all perfect you may create a page, you can follow these directions to do so https://www.facebook.com/help/104002523024878. Do not create a new "personality" like your current FB page, it should be more of a "fan page". 

Remember, your Muslim Empires test will be the first day we are back in classes! ALSO, ALL LATE WORK IS DUE TO ME BY THIS FRIDAY!

SCIENCE 

Please read section 15.3 in your book,  and answer the questions on page 480:

The Battle of the Bands will be postponed by a few days, probably until Wednesday-Friday of next week (Wednesday for grades 7/8, Thursday 9/10, Friday 11/12). This will be confirmed on Monday if we have school. Meanwhile, you should be working on the second part of your project, which will be to present your band in a "business presentation" during class on May 22nd-24th, to try to convince Mrs. Vasquez to become your band's agent. You can be emailing or talking to each other about your band name, CD cover/fake song titles on the back, fake "biographies" on each member, band vision statement (what kind of art you make and with what purpose), and any other fun information you want to include about your band. You can either bring a "folder/portfolio" with printed items, or you may choose to do a Powerpoint type presentation of your band. Feel free to email Mrs. Vasquez if you have any questions, at: rachelvasquez@me.com.

BIBLE

Read the chapter on Lost in Translation (from “Pop goes the church” on google books).  You can find it here: http://books.google.com.bo/books?id=YucXQBKxNvIC&lpg=PA1&ots=usPMlwNFcN&dq=5%20responses%20to%20cultural%20interaction%20%22Terry%20Mattingly%22&lr&pg=PA41#v=onepage&q&f=false

Write a one page summary of the chapter.  Due Wed.

ENGLISH

Okay, I really don't want you guys to start Act 5 without me. So.... I give you ANOTHER DAY WITH NO WORK! I will accept cookies and other treats as a thank you. ;)

SOCIALS

Continue to research your person for your Historical Person Facebook Project. When you are done researching and have all your info written down, please email it to me and I will look it over and give you the go ahead to create your Facebook page. My email address is becca.lamont813@gmail.com. You may not start your page until I give you the okay to do so! Isaiah: you need to email me with what person you would like to do ASAP. Continue to prepare for your Muslim Empires test; it will be given the first day we're back in classes.

SCIENCE .

You should have read the entire handout on the planets consisting of 6 pages.

Please now read the section on the Life Cycle of the Stars, section 15.2.     Remember that these ideas presented in this book are from a secular viewpoint and that Scripture maintains that God created the stars with their own glory  in a single day.  The Bible does not allow for such long time frames for evolution of stars as the book maintains.   (1 Cor 15,  Genesis 1)  While the ideas are the best that secular thought can manage without an understanding of God’s truth, the truth regarding their creation, their development and their ongoing maintenance is found in the Holy Scriptures.

MATH

Finish worksheets given this week. Be prepared for a quiz on them on Monday. Use time to do computers assignment.

Paro Work for Wednesday (15 May 2013)


BIBLE

Read Genesis 16 and be ready to discuss what law(s) were broken (according to the culture of the day).  Watch this video about the church and creating culture by Mark Driscoll (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdUoMJG1OuQ)

Lastly, look at this list and be ready to discuss the reasons we need to avoid doing these while reading the bible (Interpretation and Culture).

  • Reading our culture into biblical culture
  • Ignoring cultural backgrounds altogether
  • Using culture to make the Bible say anything
  • Buying into cultural practices without examining them scripturally (ie. Lev. 18:1-3, 24-30, 2 Kings 17:1-23, and Eze. 2-:35)
  • Disrespecting other cultures (ie. Acts 15:23, Gal. 2:15, Rev. 5:9 & 7:9)
