This newsletter is a window for you to see what is coming in the week ahead.
Special Need:
If you are willing, I really need help in covering our new history books. I have contact paper here. I just need a few people who could come in and cut and apply the contact paper to the books’ covers so that we can get a few more years out of them. Thank you so much!
A special thank you to those of you who helped purchase passports and stickers for our geography challenge! The students will each receive a blank passport and then they will earn a sticker for each region they have proven their mastery in. We will start with oceans and continents first, and then move on to the western US states. The studying and practice of geography will be on their own time. The overall winner will be crowned Geography Champion at the end of the year!
