What's happening in Language Arts?

Excellent job on last week's getting to know you project. Many of your boxes will be displayed in the front of the building in the display case.

Don't forget to bring a silent reading book to school every day for Language Arts, and get your Internet form signed (p. 20 in agenda) so you can use the computer during silent reading time.
