This week we began "Homework Heroes".  What a great response!  Homework Heroes are a great way to encourage positive learning and to challenge your child at home.  Complete as many or as few of these activities each week as your child has time for, they are optional activities.  But they give your child a great way to reinforce and practice skills at home.  Here are a few of the students' work samples they brought in this week.  Awesome!
