Thursday and Friday

Howdy all. What a gorgeous day and week we are having. The weather has been amazing, and the kids are crawling wildly out of their winter shells. As many of you know, and for those of you who don't, next Friday is the final day of the second grading period. Much will be happening in the next week as we wrap up our studies of California statehood, the Gold Rush and "Sadako".

The kids are responsible for the following tonight:

-Reading Log (due next Friday)
-Math 81 (1-20)
-Sadako packets (should be completed)
-Pizza Reports (due the 29th, sent home last week in January)
-Statehood and Gold Rush vocabulary (sent home Monday, with quiz tomorrow)

Respectfully, Mr. B

Monday, Monday...

Howdy all. The symphony was entirely groovy. The kids really seemed to enjoy themselves. The music was an exceptional blend of Stravinsky, Wagner, and local favorites Zun-Zun.

We did manage to get some schoolwork in, and the kids are responsible for the following tonight:

-Reading Log
-California vocabulary, quiz on Friday
-California: Reflections WB pp. 64-65
-Green Folders

Respectfully, Mr. B
