Dear Parents,

I hope you're having a great week.  We've been working on comparing and contrasting in class.  The photos above are snapshots of the students' work in comparing and contrasting one another using a double bubble thinking map.  

Please remember that there is no school tomorrow.  Also, the students' 4 or more point AR goal deadline is this Tuesday, October 7th.
