NONA and GRANDPA

Jia had some important things she wanted to sent to Nona and Grandpa. She wanted to do it herself.  She packed up her goodies, wrote a note and addressed her package.  Her sister helped her sister fill out the customs form, but Jia signed it as the sender. 

Jia has been working on her "summer Bridge 3-4" workbook.  She has already finished the third grade portion and earned a reward, she is doing times tables and on Monday she starts working on how to use a dictionary.  She does all of this work in the morning before she even eats breakfast.  We also have family book time, where the whole family reads a book together.  We have started on "Because of Winn Dixie" by Kate DiCamillo.  It is an awesome book for 10 year olds, and the same one that we used for the big girls when they were 10.  Jia reminds us all when it is time to read. If you keep them learning in the summer they won't be behind, in fact, they will have a jump start in their next grade.
