Social Studies

Last week we began studying Martin Luther King, Jr. This week we will learn about Jackie Robinson, and next week, if we stay on track, we will study Jimmy Carter. I hope to begin working on the background for the poster board next week, and moving forward from there the following week on our project.

Please email me if you have any questions.

Social Studies/Science

It is almost time to return to school! I am very excited about some upcoming projects that I have planned for this 9 weeks in Social Studies and Science! I will send home a list of materials for all projects with report cards, but am posting it here for those of you who may want to get a head start. Most of these items you will have at home! Please put the materials in a shoebox with your child’s name on it (with the exception of the foam posterboard).

We are going to have a great 3rd 9 weeks!

Materials:

1-11×14 FOAM posterboard
3 or 4- toilet paper rolls
2 or 3 paper towel dowels
