Week of June 1-5
Weekly Challenge:
Tell us about your summer plans! What are you hoping to do this summer? What are you looking forward to about this summer?
This week's journal Ideas:
Keeping a journal is a great way to help deal with your thoughts and feelings about what is going on around you. Each week, I will post suggestions for journal ideas here. Write or draw about your thoughts.
1. What is one goal you have for next year or this summer?
2. What are some of your favorite things about summer?
3. How do you feel about next school year and moving to the next grade? What are you worried about? What are you excited about?
I love to see your work! If you want to share, take a picture of your writing or drawing and send it to me through Remind or email (alombardo@bloomsd.k12.pa.us)
