Congratulations to all the students who successfully completed their United States project! I am so proud of you. It was a fun and educational way to learn about some of the states in our country. You can go on You-tube and find some cute songs about the fifty states. Thanks to all the parents who helped “prepare” the children for their first oral report.

I am going to let it up to you to decide if you want your child to know this or not. Some students might give you a hard time about coming if they know that I am not going to be here. If you have a question during the week Mrs. Titus will be here in my place. Mrs Bernosky
