Snow Day Homework

Don't let them fool you!  If students do not have school tomorrow they have work to do.

Word Origins--all 5th graders have their spelling lists at home and have been instructed to try to have their word origins completed when they return to school on Thursday.

As far as research goes...students could do more study on early explorers.  They started this at school but are certainly welcome to learn more at home.  Explorers include Ferdinand Magellan, Vasco da Gama, Christopher Columbus, Bartolomeu Dias, and John Cabot.  We also learned about Marco Polo today (although he will likely not be a part of the project work we'll be starting later this week.

It's possible that we WILL have school tomorrow and none of this will matter.  But...just in case!


Happy Groundhog Day!
