Week 2 Take 2

Phenomenal!!! The kids are doing so well with not talking in class.  Just a superb job!! I cannot say enough positive about them :)

Snack this week was Varnell....YUMMY doughnuts! Thank you :)  Next week is Gaines.

I have the kids thinking about the end of the year party and where they would like to go.  I will also need at least one mom to volunteer to help carpool.  (My car fits 7) Next week we will bring up places to vote on.

Also, Week 14 is .....dissection.  I have the kids thinking upon whether they would like to dissect a shark or pig.  Your student is not required to dissect.  I highly encourage them to at least try.  If they are not going to, please just let me know. 

And away we go......

Math: We went over 4 lessons in class.  Please, if there are any questions feel free to email or call me doing the week.  In two weeks we will have a quiz.
