Family Focus
This year we are taking more of a family focused approach to homework. We believe that spending quality family time is vital in the success of your student. We will provide family friendly, engaging homework activities and assignments. We would love if you would send us pictures of these activities and share them with us.
This weeks Family focus:
We are learning about procedural text. This could be a great activity for you to work on at home. An example would be to bake or create something using written directions. Please send pictures to your teacher of your awesome creations! If you make something edible, share it with your teacher! We sure do love goodies!!!
