Soccer game at Escola das Nações.
A few action shots from our game against School of the Nations. This was an amazing game! We started loosing 1 to zero, but Betuel scored an amazing goal to tie the game. Latter we suffered another goal, but Almaala scored and we were tied 2 to 2 at half-time. On the second half we came back on fire and scored two good goals with Almaala and Omair. We were leading 4 to 2, but in the last minutes School of the Nations rallied back and scored two goals to tie the game. 4 to 4 was the final score. Very exciting game. Way to go Eagles!

Algebra 1 review + bonus questions.
To study for this test, please watch the videos below... There are videos on solving word problems, solving equations, turning words into algebra, and more...
Below are pictures of solving equations with different fractions. Make sure you know how to solve these kind of equations. The first pictures is the answer to problem 33 on p152 (about the rectangle).
For this one you should multiply both sides by 5 to get rid of the fraction.
This one multiply both sides by the reciprocal.
This one multiply by a number that will "take care" of both fractions. In this case multiply by 12, which will latter cancel with the 4 and the 3 (which are the denominators).
Bonus question - Turn this in tomorrow before your test to get extra points : )
I went to the store and bought a watermelon and 4 bananas. I spent $20. The water melon cost $5 more than a banana. How much does each fruit cost?
Hint: let X be the price of a banana. You may also watch the video below about Dogs and Cats to help you solve this problem.

Are you a good neighbor
Our Daily Bread

A Good Neighbor
Read: Luke 10:29-37
Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. —1 John 4:11
In June 2011, when disastrous flood- waters chased residents of Minot, North Dakota, from their homes, the people of that community did what seemed to come naturally to them—they helped others who were in need. People from more than an hour away, without being asked, showed up to help. Some loaned their campers to those who lost their homes and others allowed their garages to be used for temporary storage. The people of North Dakota were showing what it means to be good neighbors.
As followers of Christ, being good neighbors—showing love to others—should come naturally to us as well (Matt. 22:39; John 13:35; 1 John 4:7-11). Even though we may not have the opportunity to respond in a dramatic way to a natural disaster, we can all look for ways to love those around us. To be good neighbors, we can show others mercy (Luke 10:29-37), treat others fairly (Lev. 19:13-18; James 2:1-8), speak to others truthfully (Eph. 4:25), and forgive others completely (Eph. 4:32; Col. 3:13).
Christians can be the best neighbors around because our love for others flows out of the life of the ultimate neighbor—Jesus Christ—who loved and sacrificed His life for us.
Oh, to be like Him, tender and kind,
Gentle in spirit, lowly in mind;
More like to Jesus, day after day,
Filled with His Spirit now and alway. —Ellsworth
Gentle in spirit, lowly in mind;
More like to Jesus, day after day,
Filled with His Spirit now and alway. —Ellsworth
Our love for Christ is only as real as our love for our neighbor.

Capoeira club ends with grand presentation
We finished our first Capoeira club with a great exhibition where the BIS students played Capoeira with the group "Oficina Cultura e Raízes". Our teacher Aladin and his group once again put on a great show, and we even had a special guest, Mestre Zulu. Zulu is a master of Capoeira and one of the biggest names of Capoeira in Brazil and in the world. We were honored to have him in our "roda de capoeira" and our kids had a great time doing Capoeira with him. Every BIS student that completed the Capoeira club received a certificate at the end of the event. Special thanks for our teacher Aladin for all his hard work and support. We will offer more capoeira clubs in August... : )
students receive certificates

3rd - 6th grade Soccer team plays against Corinthians at home
The 3r - 6th grade team finished the season with a great game against Corinthians. The Eagles lost their final game at home, but it turned out to be a great game with many goals from both teams. This concludes the soccer season for this year, but I am sure we'll see more of this team next year. Congratulations to Allan and Tomohiro for scoring the goals for the Ealges!

Shoot-a-thon at BIS. Support our archery team!
| Shoot-a-thon at BIS (fundraiser) |
The BIS archery team is raising money to buy more bows and arrows for next season. We would like to ask you to participate in our shoot-a-thon fund raiser (this is optional).
This is how it works, you would choose an archer to sponsor, and your donation will be determined by the archer's score on the shoot-a-ton. You can choose to donate: $1 per point scored or $0.50 per point scored or $0.10 per point scored.
For example: Suppose you chose to sponsor Sarah for $0.50 per point scored. If she scores 90 points than you would donate $45 (90 x 0.50 = 45).
Students will shoot 30 arrows (15 arrows from 10m distance and 15 arrows from 15m distance). The maximum score per arrow is 10 points, and the maximum score for the whole competition is 300. Most of our archers score between 70 and 150 points (so far this year).
Want to participate? The archers shot their arrows on May 16, but we have not added their scores yet. So fill out your form (if you would like to participate – this is optional) and we'll contact you next week to inform you of your archer's score. Then you can send the appropriate donation to BIS J. Thanks for your support!
Note: Donations can be made in Reais (if you are in Brazil) or in U.S. Dollars (if you are in the United States). If you are in Brazil, please send your donations (at the appropriate time) to BIS. If you are in the U.S. you can donate via the website: www.nics.org , click on the following links Donate > Single Donation > School Project > BIS > Archery (for other project).
To participate fill out the form below and send it to the BIS office, or email your choices to coachbatista@gmail.com. We will contact you once we have all the scores added.
