Upcoming: Amazing Race Essay & Speech

As we wind down our "Amazing Race" across the United States, the students have been preparing an informational essay & speech about a location they picked in class a few weeks ago.

The essay should focus on their location's historical importance, why people would travel to it, important facts, etc. It needs to be typed up and printed out to turn in.

The speech can be a retelling of their essay, though I recommend that it be under 2 minutes and memorized. Students may choose to change their speech slightly to make it more entertaining.

Both the essay and the speech are due on Monday, June 2nd. 

It is the last big assignment before report cards are completed for the final trimester.

Open House- May 21st

Just a reminder that this year's Open House & Art Show is on Wednesday, May 21st from 6:30-7:30pm. Stop by our room to see all the amazing things your students have done, and also swing by the Multi-Purpose Room for this year's Art Show.

Also, our classroom will feature QR Codes (Quick Read Codes) to help guide you to some of our digital projects. I recommend you download a free QR Code Scanner for your phone so you can see your student's hard work.

Hope to see you there!
