She left a puzzle for them to solve. They were given clues and hints about an epidemic in a certain area, and they were to find the cause of it. It was a water pump, every student got it correct. They answered some questions about the project to aid in learning about contaminated water and the damage it can cause. Then, they were each given a mini project, to research and write a paragraph of recent contaminated water in India, Mexico, and Africa (each student had a different area); and write about the causes, the effects and what they did to prevent it.

Finished reviewing the packet from chapter 7 food. Then we studied the history of the Mexican holiday 5 de mayo. We discussed the importance of the battle of Puebla. The french vs. the mexicans. We clarified that it is not the Mexican independence day - that date is Sept. 16th. Students then completed a word search with the important words from Cinco de Mayo. The students described the importance of these words as they relate to 5 de mayo. Then the students did a Word Jumble. Had to finish for HW.
