Sorry I haven’t posted lately - things get crazy!

4 informational notices today:

1 Your behavior during our haiku illustration time is telling me whether or not each class is capable of doing project work instead of book work - I want you to have fun, but if you cannot do the work at the same time then it will just be bookwork… Boring!

2 Community Unity Day is Friday! Students who get all their work in this week (in both classes) will be going with me to have a group breakfast during class. Students who do not get their work done will be taking a test in Ms Chan’s room.

3 AM - I posted musical chairs pics on Photobucket here is the link to the album

4 All - I also (finally) posted my omsi pics. The link to the omsi album is here

Our COW is finally here! We will be going over the guidelines in class today, and I will require that students bring their sheets home to get signed (sorry about all the signatures lately ) before they use them. Hopefully, we can start this week!
