Parents,
**During this two-week time period that we are studying Social Studies, you may notice that the practice workbook pages listed below are not written in your child's agenda.  The workbook pages are intended to be classwork only.  The assignments in your child's agenda are homework only.  Sometimes, if your child did not finish their classwork, they may take home the classwork and finish it at home and turn it in the next morning.
