Dear Super Students,

     Welcome!  I hope you had a great weekend.  You will have Music today.  Please read through the Daily Plans so you know what you’ll be doing today. 

     For Morning Work, please take out your Social Studies book and your Venn Diagram for lesson 3 (Pueblo and Navajo).  I mentioned this in the Patton’s Post, but didn’t mention it in class, and I apologize for that.  But, I highly recommend reviewing Lessons 1-3 in the textbook and to review your notes and handouts.  This will help keep the information “fresh” in your mind.  This week, you will finish Unit 1 and begin an eJournal project online.

 

Make it a great day!
