Red Ribbons (Weeks 9 & 10)

To compliment Red Ribbon Week, the classes are looking at the harm tobacco and alcohol can do to our bodies. We are using the fourth grade Health and Fitness textbook, which is not available online, and does not go home. Most of the students have a paper we began but did not finish. I do NOT expect students to complete this at home; we will finish it tomorrow in class.

The homework this week is to talk with parents about alcohol and tobacco, and there is not a paper assignment. However, the class work we did today can be an excellent way to begin this conversation. I encourage you to ask your child about today's discussion. Please feel free to email me with any questions you may have.

We have finished up the science unit on Changes to Land and Experimenting with Forces. Whew! Report cards will be going home soon, so be on the lookout for them next Thursday. As always, please email me with any questions.
