Poetry recitations, Science Night preparations, end-of-trimester evaluations…our families have been busy these last few weeks! And the next couple of weeks coming up will be just as full with excitement! We want to remind you again that we have two big SLOCA events on the horizon with Bill D. and our Father-Daughter dance next week. Make sure to sign up if you haven’t already!
Now onto this week’s supplemental resources. As always, what we share here on Mondays is meant to further enrich your learning at home. These supplemental resources are optional and are not meant to give you “one more thing” to do. There is no pressure to read, watch or do all (or any!) of these resources. Therefore, utilize them in a way that will best fit your family’s dynamic and schedule.
