Flat Stanley- Assigned Jan. 24th. Due Feb. 3rd.
Your child has chosen a country and is becoming an expert on it. During school, he or she will be researching this country. Please ask them what their country is, or look for it on the white paper attached to their blue homework sheet. We will be sending letters to the ambassadors from these countries asking for information about their nations. It will be very exciting!
There will be a homework project to go along with this unit.
Please work with your child to do additional research about their country at your home. Some suggestions for this are traveling to the Salem Public Library, looking at websites online, or checking out books from Englewood's library.
Once your child is familiar with their country, they will be responsible for creating a 3D display that can help teach others about the country they researched. This display needs to be able to sit by itself on their desk so that others can view it. You may assist your child with this project. This will be due on February 3rd.
Ideas: Decorate a cereal box, create a stand-up display, make a paper mache shape that looks like the country or famous landmark, create a diorama, etc.
To show off our projects, the 2nd floor classrooms will create a MUSEUM from 2:00 until 2:45 on Friday, February 4th. Guests are welcome to attend and view the 3D displays in Rooms 7, 8, and 10 to learn about the countries of the world. The displays will be moved to the library following Friday's museum.
***This Museum will replace the normally scheduled Market Day. Market Day will instead be moved back one week to Friday, February 11th***
