US Regional Map Project

We are working hard on our United States Regional Map project.  Each group of four students is making a political or physical map of a region of the United States.  As part of this, each group is deciding on some information about the region they can share in a chart or graph.  Be sure to ask you child about his or her region and what cool facts they will share on their graph.  We had a lot of fun deciding!  The students will create a short slide show of attractions in their region.  The maps and graphs will be displayed in the hall for the other Oasis students to learn from and enjoy.

On weekends with a holiday, we do not do Parent journals, so don't worry if you didn't see it come home.  We are sending home the first Monday folder on Tuesday this week because of Labor Day.  Confusing, I know, but we have graded work to send home.  Usually that folder will come home on Mondays.  Just initial in the 9-1 box and send the empty folder back tomorrow.

Have a great week!
