Hello Families,

Social Studies: Pages 18-21 in the text are assigned for Thursday, and students are asked to follow the coming elections in the news.

Homereading: novels and A-Z books should come to school regularly, and work on the RAZ Kids  site is strongly encouraged.

The following video is a TED talk about the importance of student motivation. I strongly encourage you to take the time to watch - I have tried to embed it with French subtitles so that all families have access to the content.

Have a wonderful week!
