Monday

Howdy all, and thanks for checking in. I wanted to take a moment to congratulate all of the kids on their combined and individual efforts with last Friday's group conservation presentations. I was so impressed with what the kids were able to pull together in just a week's time.
We are currently on our second round of SPECTRA artists, and the kids will be spending the remainder of March and early April working with a local cartoonist. We've spent two weeks working with facial structures, and eventually the kids will be working with an entire strip. Be sure to check Monday folders today for information about Jon's work and upcoming events.
We are wrapping up our studies of Bridge to Terabithia this week. The kids have really enjoyed the book, and it has sparked many an interesting conversations around the subjects of friendship, bullying and loss. Next week we will segue back into lit circle groups, as the grade levels will engage with some historical fiction aligned with their studies.

Tonight, the kids are responsible for the following:

- HM math (17.3 for fourth and 16.4 for fifth)
- Saxon 96
- Terabithia vocabulary, section 5
- Monday Folders

Respectfully, Mr. Bryant
