Smart kids here
To the Journal editor:
My name is Asa Naigus and I am in fifth grade at North Star Academy.
Every Wednesday, we do an assignment called “Current Events.” We find an article in the newspaper or online and we reflect on what we read. I do my assignment on articles I find in your newspaper every week.
Current Events is really important because we need to know what is going on around us. If we don’t know what is happening in our community, then what do we know? We need to connect with our community, be good neighbors, and look out for each other.
I suggest every class does this. This has made our fifth grade class very smart.
