By Tuesday rough drafts (5-6 paragraphs depending on the graphic organizer the student chose last week) are due for Peer Editing. FYI - we will not do silent reading on Monday as we will be missing many students on Thursday (1/2 day hours 3,4,5, & 6) and Friday (Spanish trip to Chicago).

Tech: We continued our Investigation of our Family Budget. I showed students how to deduct taxes from their spreadsheet and then we discussed Child Support and how to find it online. For most child support calculators students will need to know how much child care is....Cell phone day is Tuesday - students may bring in cell phones to call child care centers or local schools to find out about after-school care for their children. No Mom cannot watch the kids for free :)
