homework:
Students will pick one 'big idea' that we are studying this week and do a project at home related to the topic. Ideas will be in your child's daily take home folder.
The projects can be as easy as writing a 1 page book report, doing research on line and highlighting facts or more in depth like making a video commercial to advertise a recent book read, a power point slide show showing information learned.
Try to add variety throughout the year. Adjust the project size to meet your family's needs.
