short post

Hello,

We started work on our historical fiction projects today.  Some are doing posters, some skits, some will be wax statues (or automatons) of their main character.  Ask your child about their story and what they plan to do to help "market" the book. 

I've been moving around the equals sign in my math class and it is messing people up.  Somehow 55-___= 37 is a lot easier than 37 = 55 - ___.  We'll get it.

I'm seeing a lot of improvement in the Rocket Math addition.  Nice job folks.

I'm sorry to cut this short, (not due to frustration tonight) but I volunteered to help stuff backpacks with food for the less fortunate.  I hate to admit that I've done very little volunteering in my life, so I thought it would be good to get the ball rolling.  I have to admit that the tragic death of Philip Gary has got me thinking about doing more and being more of a contributor to our society.  Thanks Mr. Gary.

Have a good night.

Mr. Shea
