Children's Television Report The first show I will be discussing is Peppa Pig. I watched this show at 2pm on Nickelodeon Jr. The second show I will be discussing is Curious George. Curious George is my son's personal favorite show so we watched it together at 3pm on PBS. Peppa Pig didn't consist of a one 30 minute plot, instead the show contained several mini adventures each about 4 to 5 mins long. The first one was titled, Frogs and Worms and Butterflies.

from very low morale. I’m requesting your support in starting a workshop on improving individual writing skills. At this point in time I don’t think that there is a more important project.

Recalling my own school days, I know there were always some writing assignments that I didn’t find enjoyable or downright disliked, and I hope to minimize these assignments in my own classroom.

The tools you would find in my drawer are common tools. The tools needed just for the basic workshop. Both kinds of screw drivers, Phillips head and a flat head.
