3/12

HW due Wednesday:

1. NewsELA article - Perspective + Bias in Teaching History
a. Read article and respond to the following questions... What is one thing that stood out to you from the article? What is a perspective from the article on the importance of teaching 'ancient' cultures?

Read-A-Thon:

This is the final week to turn in pledge forms and pledges for READ-A-THON.

You can still get pledges, so even if you haven't asked anyone yet, you still have time to help out our wonderful school. You can ask people near or far and it is super easy with our online pledge form: https://www.sesptsa.org/readathon-pledge/. Send it out far and wide!

 Things to remember when turning in forms:
-Turn in the signed pledge form AND any cash or checks you've collected together, in one envelope. -They are all due no later then this Friday, March 15th to be counted for prizes. (You can still get pledges after that date though to help the school.)
-Please make sure ALL pledge forms are accurate in units (not minutes).
-Remember that for K-2 one unit is 10 minutes of reading and for 3-8 one unit is 20 minutes of reading. If your student accidentally record minutes, no big deal, just convert or write a note on the form that says "recorded in minutes" and we'll convert for you. :)
- After checking for accuracy, make sure you've initialed each day and signed the form. Forms that are NOT checked and signed by parents will not be counted toward prizes. This is a very important step of the process.

Thanks so much for participating in this year's event we've had such a good time celebrating reading! Any questions please email me at leslielothamer@gmail.com.
