classes to teach them about similes and metaphors. How do you think it affected them and why?

Ms. Hays: I know that some of the students felt confident about what they were teaching. One in particular, Kelsey, s

liked it so much she wants to be a teacher when she is older.

Mark: Did this take a lot of planning and time? If so, how many things did they have to learn and what did they have

learn?

Ms. Hays: First, they had to learn about similes, metaphors, and hyperboles. Then, they had to make a quiz, a script

a lesson plan.

Mark: What kind of character trait do you think was shown in the classroom?Ms. Hays: They showed all of the traits: Caring, Respect, Responsibility, Trustworthiness, Fairness, Citizenship.

Mark: Did they help them spell words?

CV Volunteers are the best! We need you to make Canyon View Elementary Shine.What every parent should know

Researchers have been studying the effects parent attitudes and actions have on their children's academic

success for more than 30 years. The results have been consistent. Anne Henderson and Nancy Berla summedit up in their book A New Generation of Evidence: The Family Is Critical to Student Achievement, which re-viewed the existing research: "When parents are involved in their children's education at home, they do bet-ter in school. And when parents are involved in school, children go farther in school and the schools they goto are better."
