Many weeks there will be homework options (this does not mean that homework is optional :)). One recurring option will be that the 4th and 5th grade students can choose a current event that they can make a connection with their current unit of study in Target. The article can be found on the Internet, or from a newspaper or magazine. They should include a summary of the article along with the relationships and connections they have made, and be prepared to share out in class the morning of the day we meet. Here's a link to the form in case you need to print one out at home. Download Connections

4th and 5th Grade Target
4th and 5th grade ALP students have been asked to come to class with something with a hood (hoodie jacket, bathrobe, etc) for an activity. I am also asking for donations of beef jerky and dark bread. If anyone can help us out, let me know! Thanks.
