Not a Box Challenge:
On Thursday we read the story Not a Box. Design your own item that is “not a box” from a box.
Be creative! We are excited to see what you come up with. All of these boxes need to fit comfortably in our classroom on Tuesday, so please use a small to medium size box. (i.e. perimeter of base is no more than 200 cm).

Global Read Aloud:
In class we are reading the book, Front Desk. One of the themes of the book is immigration (Mia and her family immigrate to the USA from China). Talk to your family about your family’s immigration story. Record the notes (you can type them or write them on paper with pencil) from your conversation as you will be using this information on a future assignment in class. Bring a hard copy of your notes and put them into your binder in the LA section.
