More great SS "Artifact Projects"

Dear parents, 

We had two great presentations during Social Studies today. Thanks to Ella and Miles for giving well-prepared oral presentations. Please check with your child to ensure they have their artifact and are prepared for their presentation on their upcoming scheduled due date. 

I was intrigued with Ella's presentation when I heard a particular name in her Norwegian heritage. I have done some research using Ancestry.cim and I think we may be distantly related!! We both hail from Petersen farm families that immigrated from Norway to Minnesota in the late 1800's. Very cool!! 

Next week, our class has square dance lessons during the day and a family barn dance on Wednesday, February 5th. This sounds like fun!!

Best wishes, 

Mrs. Gerri Karr
