This morning we began reading the first few chapters of Helen Keller. In the afternoon, we reflected on the story with our partner and recorded our answers on the wiki. We also began exploring how the government affects us at school. WE explored a great website to learn more about this. In the afternoon, we enjoyed Eng Tech and Swimming. Get ready for a fantastic Friday!
