Hi Mrs. Spata are we going to talk about black history month in class every day in class? Or maybe once a day? I can’t wait until we learn about black history month, I did not know that.
My second question is you know how we are learning about the 50 states, well I want to learn more about New York. I feel like theres more. so do you know what website I can go on and learn more about New York. I have books like an atlas. should I bring that to class? I have two atlas books.

We learned a lot about New York in the beginning of the year. But if you want to know even more…here are some great links to learn more about New York. These are some “kid-friendly” sites that you can check out.

Dear Mrs.Spata,
Are we going to learn about a lot of famous people who are black? I hope we learn a lot about them.
We will learn about a few of them this year. You will learn a few each year in Tackan.
