Happy New Year!
Welcome back. It's exciting to see everyone and a joy to be back in our routine. 2017 is going to be a GREAT year!
Famous American Biographies
Although we will not start working on our famous American biography writing and presentations until the middle or end of February, students should begin thinking about who they would like to research. Entertainers and artists will not be allowed. Please choose scientists, inventors, humanitarians, politicians, etc. It is my goal that each student have a different subject this year, so please help them think of 2-3 famous Americans that they would like to learn about. I will give first dibs on a first come, first-served basis. A Day to Celebrate Friendship
With Valentines just around the corner, save shoe boxes for a Valentine craft. Also, if you have any Valentine decorating supplies to donate, I would greatly appreciate it.
