Good Evening!
We have all survived our first week back after spring break. Hopefully we can get back into our routine for Term 3.
ELA—Four Reader Responses for April are due Apr. 29. The students have all now handed in and presented their final projects for Freak the Mighty. We will be watching the movie "The Mighty" which is based on the novel this week, probably Friday. Some students choose to present their Creative Writing Stories. We saw our last MTYP play, Circus Incognitus and the students really enjoyed it. Thanks to Mrs. Woo for driving.
We began working on our Children's Bible Story Books. They are due on April 21 before Easter Weekend. We will be starting a poetry unit this week or next.
