Welcome back to a new year of learning. We start back into the new year by learning the importance of copyright. All grades will learn what, where and why books are copyrighted and older grades will learn plagiarism and how to document research papers. This lesson follows with fairy tales, folk tales and fables. Which is your favorite and why?
We started December with Dictionary lessons and ended with enrichment activities. The last ten days before Winter break I read a poem and discuss 800s - Language in non-fiction. For classes 3-5th, I read A Night Before Christmas and grades K-2nd, I read another winter appropriate book. Younger students are not checking out and older students made an individual decision about checking out. Enjoy your two weeks off and keep reading. Many thanks for the gifts and goodies for Kim and me. Happy Holidays.
