Daily message from Mrs. Hare:
Good morning, class! I hope you all had a great weekend. As I plan ahead for the week, it will be impossible for me to hold live Google Meets (because I have virtual parent teacher conferences during these times). If you need extra help on anything, feel free to send me an email and we can set up a special time outside of school hours for me to help you.
I appreciate all of your flexibility and patience this week! I will be busy before school, during lunch, and after school with parent teacher conferences. I'll try to get back to you as soon as possible!

This was the war that gave our nation independence from British power. Please watch the video above as an introduction to some of the troubles we will learn about this week through video lessons!

Your spelling words for the week are listed in the document above. Today, please write them at least three times each to get familiar with them. If you don't know what a word means, make sure that you look it up! Our test will be Friday, and will be the same format as our last spelling test.
Continue reading information about your chosen person, and write notes (in the correct category) of your note sheet we began on Friday. This will help us create organized paragraphs when we begin writing. Try to research for about 20 minutes today. Some good options for research are listed below, but you ARE NOT limited to these options. Use the search bars on the websites below to find information about your chosen person.
