I'm BACCKK in the Saddle agaaainn...

I am so glad to be back!!

I have missed all my students very much
and hoped everyone behaved well for the substitutes!

As you can see, Avery Faith arrived big, beautiful and healthy.

She was born April 7th @ 11:04 am.

She was 8 lbs 4.6 ounces, 20 1/2 inches long.

Just .2 ounces smaller than her big sister was.

So, congratulations to any of the students from Mrs. Betiks' math class that guessed 8lbs!

THIS WEEKS ASSIGNMENT:

We will be watching 'Freak, The Mighty" in class this week.

Your assignment will be to take notes on the differences you observe in the book and movie.

On Thursday, You will be asked to write a full page (front and back) about all the differences your found and how they may have changed your opinion, or affected your view of the book.

This can can be in either a positive or negative way.
