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 "Just Say No!" by Jennifer Barefoot.

"How has America changed over time?", "How do we define the roles of men and women?", and "How do people create change?"
