My Project

The countdown to summer vacation has begun. Yayyy!

Although summer break might mean time away from school, it does not have to mean time away from learning.

My wonderful students have worked hard all year long, and I want to provide them with the Summer Bridge Activities books. These books include a variety of math, reading, and writing activities for students to practice and review some of the skills they learned throughout the school year. The Paragraph of the Week and the Daily Science workbooks will be a supplement to the Summer Bridge Activities workbooks.

I am also requesting Pacon Junior composition notebooks and School Smart Flexible Cover Ruled Composition Books so that my students can continue to journal during the summer. Additionally, I am requesting Staples Polyester Zipper Pouches and Sax Mesh Tool Cases for students to keep their writing tools safe.
