Storyline:
This week we will begin working on our Frieze of Venice as well as our characters. As I have mentioned earlier, our children will become school children living in Venice, Italy.
They will be taking on Italian names. Some children have come up with some names that are not really Italian, so they will not be able to use those names. I have a list of names at school that children can use. If the your child wants to find a name, Google Italian baby names. You should be able to find some great lists. If your child picks a name at home, please make sure they know what the word means in Italian.
We will begin writing our picking names and biographies on Wednesday or Thursday.
The Rialto Bridge...
The children would love to have the Rialto Bridge in our room. Are there any parents out there that work with building and would be willing to build a small bridge for our classroom? The kiddos want to put it in our doorway, so they can walk across the bridge when they enter and exit our classroom. Let me know if you are interested!! It would be a simple bridge......
Scholastic Book Orders:
Remember to look at the link to scholastic books orders with your children. The orders are due on April 7.
I hope you had an enjoyable weekend!
