Family Letters
Each week, one student writes a letter to all families that will be posted below. Ideas shared in the letters come from students and are written by students using strategies, skills, and tools from writing class. I do not edit these pieces, but I am available as a resource for students.
Enjoy reading about what we're doing in class! Our tenth letter is written by Jarez!
