Hello, parents and students:
It has been a busy, productive week. Again, I would like to congratulate the students on winning the Music Treasure Hunt on Wednesday.
Next Thursday is International Day at HIS. The students of 4th Grade have chosen Argentina as their country. They will give brief group presentations on various aspects (Geography, History, Nature, People/ Culture, Government/ Economy) of this lovely country. I have provided them with an overview from Kids National Geographic. Here are some websites to aid them in their search:

I think these will help to get them started.
Homework for Monday:
Math - p. 330-331, Chapter 12 review; chapter test on Monday
Science - read p. C62-C65, and complete C.9.3 study guide
Social Studies - begin to research your groups topic for Argentina
Have a great weekend!
