CHROMEBOOKS: While your child is allowed to bring home his/her chromebook, we don't recommend it on a regular basis because we don't have chargers for kids to take home. Their chargers are in our cart. When students take home their chromebooks, they often come back dead and are unable to be used in class. All of our resources can be accessed anywhere on any device where there is internet! Start by visiting www.birmingham.k12.mi.us and click on the magnifying glass in the top rigth corner. Then you will see the link to ClassLink. Ask your child to show you around ClassLink and what we have used so far. MANY KIDS BRING DEAD CHROMEBOOKS TO SCHOOL DAILY!

Our opinion writing study is underway. We will be focusing on the following elements during this study of writing.
- Introduction.
- The first reason why you agree/disagree.
- The second reason why you agree/disagree.
- The third reason why you agree/disagree (if you have one)
- Conclusion.
We are reading "The Sign of the Beaver." This novel lends itself well to various language arts concepts and it is tied to our social studies as well. After reading this novel over the next few weeks, we will compare it to the movie.
