Snow coming

Hello,

I just heard that we will be getting 1-3 inches of snow tomorrow.  I'm hoping for no snow days this year.  I like days off in June better than days of shoveling in January or February.  I think we're safe from a snow day tomorrow.  The last few days have been a nice mini-break for the kids from the cold weather. 

It was interesting to see how many students wrote their spelling words over and over last night rather than make up a word search, crossword, or some other game with their words.  The cynic in me thinks it was because that was the most mindless option.  Maybe it was because it was the quickest, although putting them in sentences or making a word search doesn't take very long.  I was surprised with the overwhelming majority of students that did the same thing. 

Geography picture dictionaries should be wrapped up tomorrow.  We'll spend a few more days on landforms and then make islands of play dough / clay where they can show off their learning.  I'll send a recipe home when we get a little closer to the day.

Physical education class is tomorrow.  Don't forget sneakers.

Have a good night.  I've got to run.

Mr. Shea
