Think Different Person of the Week and Ratios Activities!

Think Different!

This week our Think Different person is Jane Goodall.  Research about Jane Goodall to see how she made a difference in our world.  You may also want to look up her foundation and visit the website! Come to class on Thursday with your research and be ready to discuss Jane Goodall.

Ratios Activities

Today I sent home a sheet with your scholar that has two different Ratios activities.  These are for you to complete with them at home.  This is a great way to interact with your child and help reinforce the skills we are learning in class.
