Thanks to all of you who were able to attend Parent Night! The PowerPoint presentation was sent to everyone via email - please let me know if you did not receive it. I am so excited about this year! I know that working together will make it one to remember!
This week, the students will begin learning all about famous Tennesseans. On Monday, your child will be assigned a person to research for our Top Notch Tennesseans Project. By Wednesday, students will need to bring in at least two research materials from different sources (i.e. articles from different Internet sites, books from the library, encyclopdia excerpts, etc.). Please help your child read and outline/highlight important facts from their research, so that they are prepared to begin writing their narratives in class on Wednesday.
Thank you for all that you do!
Now for a few housekeeping items...
1. New Entertainment Books were distributed to the students on Monday. Continue to take orders using these books.
2. We are requesting a $25.00 fee for Arts in the School, planners, TCAP prep books, and various support materials that will be used throughout the year. Checks may be made payable to CSPN.
