3rd Grade: April 13, 2016

Oh, no.  Someone stole Pedro's cheese!  Before break, students drew the faces of possible suspects and described them in Spanish.  This week, we lined up all of the pictures and had the descriptions all typed up on a suspect sheet.  Students worked to match the pictures to descriptions.  They were great detectives!

Ask your student:
