On our half day Fridays… we have been using our time to do Social Studies projects.  This Friday, we will make a timeline of our lives.  We will be thinking of 5 important things that have happened to us in our lives (for example, what year we were born, what year did we learn how to walk, what year did we go to school, what year did we learn how to ride a bike, etc.).  It would help your child, if you could discuss some of these important events in their lives and write down any facts you can share with them.

Also, we will celebrate our diversity with Diversity Day!  In your child’s mail on Tuesday there was a paper describing what Diversity Day is.  We will share pictures, artifacts, books and stories told by our family members about where our grandparents or great grandparents or parents immigrated from.  We will set up the room like a museum to see all the treasures.  Thank you for helping your child collect these items!
