Family Memories
Optional Independent Project
At times throughout the year, your child will have the opportunity to continue or enhance their learning projects at home. These projects are optional and open ended. We invite your family to participate in any aspect of the project.
This past week, your child has personalized their writing folders to help them during writer’s workshop. While coming up with ideas and topics to write about, your child will be using their writing folders to prompt thinking and memories. In the classroom, we have used magazines to begin this process. We are looking for your child to continue collecting memories and images from home. Here are some ideas of pictures to bring in. Remember, the pictures will be glued to your child’s writing folder and may not be returned.
1.) family photo
2.) pets
3.) trips
4.) favorite foods
5.) activities
6.) family traditions
7.) interests
Remember, these pictures can be photographs, magazine clippings, drawings, or printed images. Please make sure no picture is bigger than 4x6. Once your child has collected images, please put them in the attached bag.
****Please note that projects are due by September 13th but feel free to send it in sooner*****
