January 7 is an odd celebration called “Old Rock Day”. It celebrates

Today we will meet with first graders from Miss Parkinson’s class.
We will meet with them at 10:05. Remember what it’s like to work

We are completing this activity in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s

Do you believe our week is halfway over?
Imagine coming to a new land, maybe alone or

to get a job, and you might be unsure of where you’re
going to live. What might be happening in your mind?
What character traits would someone like this have to
have?
