Bowling

Yesterday afternoon we, the whole eighth grade, went bowling at Hudsonville lanes. We all piled into volunteering parents’ cars and drove off, away from an afternoon at school. Once we got there we all got the right size shoes and found the right weight of bowling ball. Then we got started. I am usually all right at bowling if I have bumpers up. The problem is that the people working there said that we couldn’t have bumpers. I thought that I would be in trouble but to my excitement and surprise my first two turns I got a strike!  I was very proud of myself for not getting a gutter ball but I got enough of those later on. In the end I got three strikes and a couple of spares at the end of two games. It was super fun and I was glad that we took an afternoon off of school to have some fun bowling.

Jesus’ Crucifixion

This last week in Bible we have talked about the last words and phrases that Jesus said before he died. The one that I am going to focus on is forgiveness. In the Bible Jesus says, “forgive them for they do not know what they are doing.”  We interpreted this to mean that we need to forgive others even when they are not kind or loving towards you. We still need to love and care about them and forgive them. Whenever somebody does something against you forgive them right away because if you wait a long time you might hold a grudge against that person for a long time. We need to forgive and forget and lve a life filled with love and forgiveness.

Math Word Problem

3-5–Squares and square roots~

The area of first base is 144 inches. How long is one side of the base?

How you do this problem is if the whole area of the base is 144 inches then you have to find the square root of that. The square root of 144 is 12 and so 12 inches would be your answer.
