Welcome to the parent guide for this text! Read below to find out about what your child is reading in class and how you can support him/her at home.
This week in class, we’re reading "Huevos Estrellados" by Vanessa Bernice De La Cruz.
In "Huevos Estrellados," a girl and her father meet at a diner, where she recalls childhood memories.
As we read, we will be discussing the themes of Friendship & Family and Growing Up as they relate to the text. We are trying to answer these big questions :
"What makes a family?" and "What does it mean to be grown up?"
