Week 4

 

As we quickly enter Week 4 of our studies, students will begin learning the new vocabulary and story, Weslandia, while continuing to work through our My View Literacy book.

Because of the shortened school week and the upcoming long weekend, with Friday, September 25, and Monday, September 28, as holidays, we will postpone the weekly vocabulary quiz and combine it with the Week 5 quiz scheduled for Friday, October 2nd. .

Throughout this progressive week of learning, students will be responsible for keeping up with their class lessons, assignments, and homework. Your continued support in helping students stay organized and prepared is greatly appreciated.
