Don't forget....

I know that it may be difficult to remember but, please remember to COME TO SCHOOL tomorrow! :) It seems like we have not been there for a long time but we are back tomorrow and we will be working hard right away. Have you been reading? Peek into your planner to make sure you are all caught up on your homework.

See you all soon, Ms. B

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hey you all,
Have a wonderful, unexpectedly long weekend and Thanksgiving holiday. I love the snow and sleeping in as much as you all do but am getting a little bit of "cabin fever". How about you? Be careful out there with the ice on the ground and the insanely cold temps. See you next Monday, Ms. B

SNOW?

I woke up to about three inches of snow on the ground at my house! I understand that you guys have seen a few small flakes at most. Wear those pajamas inside out to encourage snow... I will try to upload a picture of my backyard for you to see..... See you tomorrow!

Ancient Civilizations

We will soon be learning about Ancient Civilizations through participating in a simulation. There is a video game that has similar ideas in it (minus all the writing assignments you will be given!)... There is a free download at http://games.playfin.com/games/civ2/index.php

I double dog dare you to follow our class blog!

See you tomorrow, Ms. B
