BON DIA
Week 23

I hope Everyone had a wonderful 4 days off. I had a relaxing few days up in Port Angeles watching my son play basketball. I enjoyed running all over the cute port town and watching boats of various size and color come in and out of the harbor. So fun to experience new places. And since I am a water lover, it is a real treat.

This short week will be a busy one. The students are working on a book report on a famous African American who made an impact in history. Their one task over the break was to collect books written about their person, and read as much as they could so that when they came back to school today they were ready to begin their project. Many students were not ready, had not gone to the library and had not picked up any books. These students are now behind. I will send a note to each parent who's student did not gather any Biographys on their African American over the break. Your student has all of the information they need to complete this project, the only part we will be doing in school is the write up. The book report activity will need to be done at home. All reports need to be finished by Tuesday, February 28. Project presentations will be presented Wednesday and Thursday of next week. If you have any questions or concerns with this project you need to contact me.

This week we will celebrate Ash Wednesday on Wednesday the 22 at 9:00 am in church. This week we will also learn about what is on our foreheads and the history of Lent.

In Writers Workshop we will be creating Essay writing from Narrative writing.

In Readers Workshop we will be reading about our African Americans in history.

Have a great week!!!
