Our Reader's Digest Word Power final competitions and our goals projects presentations were today. If you forgot to bring your project report, bring it tomorrow! Be sure to include some bonus activities (extra word art, extra job statistics, extra essays, etc.) to make up for the points lost for being late.
We will be starting our Oral History projects on Thursday. Start thinking about someone in your life who you can interview to find out about their life, and their thoughts. We'll tie it to their thoughts on Character, Compassion, and Values (think Catholic Schools Week at the end of this month!)
