Tuesday March 5, 2013

Good evening, 

Tomorrow is our second "Walking Wednesday".  Students are encouraged to walk at least one block to school tomorrow.  On their way they can be looking for "Freddy the Foot".  This is just a fun initiative to promote healthy living within our school community.

I know I included this yesterday, but I feel it may be helpful to repeat.....

In regards to the research for student speeches, they were assigned to have their research done for today along with their arguments.  We had a chance to discuss our arguments today in class and students have now been assigned to go back and evaluate the research that they have, along with the arguments that they have developed.  In the next couple of days we will be finalizing the arguments and creating the structure for our speeches.  Discussing with your child the possible arguments that they could use for their topic is certainly welcomed.  It would provide great support for them as they formulate their ideas.
