Today, Maya gave two book talks that sparked some conversation and interest in more background information. The books she read were Live Free or Die which was a biography of Harriet Tubman and The Boy in the Striped Pajamas which was a story of a young German boy and a Jewish boy who lived in a Nazi prison camp. Below are several links to explore these topics a bit further. I will try to add more as I find them.
The Underground Railroad
The Holocaust
Children of the Holocaust

Tuperware Fundraiser for Mrs. Nanda
I wanted to remind everyone about the fundraiser the elementary school is doing to help Mrs. Nanda and her family pay for medical expenses. We are selling Tuperware, and 40% of the item cost will be donated to Mrs. Nanda's. Anyone can order online; students/parents do not need to handle any money. They just need to spread the word and pass on the website link. The link is posted below. Please take a few minutes to support Mrs. Nanda.
