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 "Snowstorm" by Bruna Dantas Lobato.
In "Snowstorm," a college student on winter break in Vermont stays connected to her mother in Brazil.
As we read, we will be discussing the themes of Loneliness & Isolation and Love as they relate to the text. We are trying to answer these big questions :
