Social Studies Project
Students brought home the directions for a social studies project today. The students need to create a brochure on Michigan. The first sheet is the project sheet. Please look over it with your child and add how you can support your child on the project. The project sheet needs to be signed and returned to school. The directions can stay at home. Late this week, I will be giving students the construction paper to make their brochure on. The project is due Monday November 13.
