Hello Parents!

As you know from your child, biographies are on there way to completion. Most students should be in the process of typing their famous American Biography report. A few were able to finish at school, but only a small amount due to my limited number of oomputers in the classroom. I will show the students the grading rubric tomorrow(Monday) which will tell them what is expected of their speech and poster. The rubric will range from a 1(the lowest score) to a 4(the highest score). I showed them a video from last years 3rd grade students, so they should have an idea about how to do their presentation. I will send a sign up sheet around this week and we will begin presenting next Tuesday, March 11. Typed reports and posters should be completed by this Friday, March 7. Reports turned in after this Friday will drop a grade until turned in. I'd like to have this graded for their report cards. If anyone is interested in video taping the presentations, please let me know by the end of this week. Again, I thank you for all that you do and the support you give me.
