The students this year will be learning many new and interesting things. During Social Studies they will be concentrating on the land and people of the United States. They will be learning about Illinois's government, history, and much more. There will also be a weekly Mystery State for them to solve. Our reading program will include novels and hands on activities for them to enjoy. In Language they will learn the importance of grammar and writing and the benefit of journal writing. I am looking forward to a great year!
