      WEEK AT A GLANCE

****************************************************

THE WITCH OF BLACKBIRD POND

For the next few weeks, we will be reading a novel. If students are absent, they should check their NGS email for make up work. When able, they can read an online version of the novel in Google Classroom. YouTube also has some read aloud versions as well. If a student knows they are going to be absent, they can check out a copy of the book from me beforehand.
