Mrs. Nawrot’s class is studying Michigan history for social studies. They are discussing the underground railroad and slavery.


Science boards have been handed out Students should be working on putting their boards together. They were given a sheet to show how their boards should look. SCIENCE BOARDS ARE DUE MARCH 17TH!! Please do not have your child bring their board until March 17th because we do not have room to store them.

Book Orders-
Book orders came in this week, so your child should have brought home their books.

Reading
March started reading month. We have been D.E.A.R reading every morning to support the cause. Also, on the 18th of March, we are doing rockin’ reading. It is where the students go to the auditorium and rock in a chair and read. Students can earn a free book by reading 4 different genres during the month.

Mrs. Kostecki-
Next week is my last week teaching full time. I am sad that it is coming to an end already. This has been a wonderful experience!! I have been truly enjoying getting to know each of your students.
