Our Opinions Matter!

Students recently completed several opinion pieces in our latest writing unit.

 They wrote about what job would be perfect for them when they grow up. 

Also, they shared opinions on whether winter or summer was the best season. 

It is clear, that even though we might not always share the same opinions, we certainly have strong opinions on many topics! Ask your child what future job they want to have when they grow up!



We have future marine biologists, teachers, doctors, and even a soccer player!
