Update from Ms. R

The homework for this week is to complete the worksheet with math questions and questions about the birthplaces of family members (this information will be used to make family trees in class). Also, the students are to write stories in the Homework Writing Journal. This journal will be sent home every two weeks. The children are asked to write a story (fiction or non-fiction) following the writing rules taped to the front of the journal. This week, the challenge is to write a story about the "mummy" stamped on the first page.

Thanks so much to all the parents that volunteered to join us on our trip to the library next week. We have our two volunteers already, but don't worry there will be opportunities to join us for other activities.
