The 7th grade language arts students are reading "Path to the Stars," a memoir by Sylvia Acevedo. This week they studied a few of Acevedo's quotes. The students found ways they connected with not only the quotes, but also with their peers. Ask your student about Sylvia and her family's Christmas traditions!
