Happy Freedom Week!


This week in Social Studies we are celebrating Constitution Day (9/17) along with Freedom Week.

Some great things to discuss at home:
- Why is the Constitution important?
- What does freedom mean to you?
- What would our lives be like without freedom?

P.S.
Last week, it was interesting to see all the different maps kids brought in from home! Students had a fun time hunting for the map parts we have been learning about (i.e. map key/legend, scale, compass rose).  We discussed the purposes of different maps and why it wouldn't be reasonable to take a wall map on a road trip!  :)

Below is a photo of the "Red" SS class "striking a pose" with their maps.
