Nebraska on the Map Quiz: Students have been "traveling" around Nebraska, learning about several cities and rivers. We even came up with a song to help us remember their locations. Just a reminder, students will be quizzed over this information (all found on the study guide) on August 29th. HERE is a link to a blank map for practice.

Curriculum Night: It was great to see so many of you Thursday evening for Curriculum Night! If you weren't able to make it, please review the slideshow HERE. There is also a yellow curriculum handbook that your child will be bringing home. Be sure to sign and return the back page!

Writing Journal: On Wednesday, students brought home their writing journals with a half sheet also linked HERE explaining the assignment. Please let me know if you have any questions! These are due on Monday, August 28th.
