It’s April 10. 
Today is “National Sibling Day.”  If you have siblings, how might you celebrate?  How might you celebrate if you are an only child?

Trivial Fact of the Day:   Famous sisters Emily, Charlotte, and Anne Brontë—fearing that their stories would be made fun of because they were female writers—used the sibling-inspired pen names Ellis Bell, Currer Bell,  and Acton Bell.
Interesting Quote of the Day:  “A ruffled mind makes a restless pillow.”  --Charlotte Brontë (British novelist)
Vocabulary Word of the Day:  attribute (verb or noun) – as an action or verb, this word means to give credit to; as a thing or noun, it means a characteristic or a trait.  It’s pronounced differently depending on whether it’s a verb or noun.


Happy Rainy Wednesday!! Today is library day. Be sure to have your book with you to return so that you will be able to get a new one. How does the CSI folder help us answer STAAR questions? Stay tuned for the answers!
