Week at a Glance January 11

 

Note from the Teacher

      This coming week the students will get back to their normal academic routine. Also, the students will be selecting a famous African American to research and study in honor of African American History month coming soon.  We will be working on this assignment both at school and at home.  Project guidelines will be sent home with each student in Friday folders.  Don't forget to begin working on the friendly letter assignment which is due the 19 of January. Those guidelines were dicussed and sent home today.
