Biome Museum Grand Opening

Hello,

After many delays, the museum opened.  One member of each biome team stayed with their display, available for questions while the other students roamed around to learn about many of our planet's biomes.  There are some impressive poster/diorama displays.  I'll finish my review of all of them tomorrow.

If any parents want to see what their children are up to, you are welcome to stop by during the last half hour of the day tomorrow.  We have art until 2:30, but from 2:35 to 3:05, I'm sure that they wouldn't mind some visitors.  Let me know if you plan on coming at sshea@brunswick.k12.me.us.

I was very impressed with the get well cards that everyone wrote for Derrick.  I dropped him off at his house on Sunday.  I don't think many kids thought that I would ever hear what was written to their friend, but Derrick proudly read them aloud while I was there.  I never realized how boring my math class is or how lucky that kids are who get to miss school with a burst appendix.  Hmmm.  Very eye-opening.

I hope some of you plan on running the Bobcat 5K this weekend.  I haven't been running due to my back, but I'm going to give it my best try.  I figure that I made it last year without training, I can hurt myself again this year.  I really hope not to pull my calf like I did on the home stretch last year.  I also hope that the runner directly in front of me, isn't a mother of one of my students pushing a stroller. I thought it would look bad if I went all out trying to beat her.  (I still couldn't have, but it is a good excuse.) Actually, I have played a few capture the flag games in homework club. That should be training enough to top most of the strollers.

The school book fair is going strong.  Everyone in the class is getting a six dollar voucher from our parent group to use for a book.  Very nice of them.  Thanks so much! We will visit the fair with our vouchers tomorrow after math. (boring math, of course.)

I'm off to a baseball game.  I hope everyone had a nice Mother's Day.

Thanks for reading,

Mr. Shea
