Week of June 3rd.... WHAT?? JUNE??? No WAY!

Cheese and crackers!!!!  It's the last month of the school year already!!!

Anyways, I'll be on another trip this week -- learning about our nation's capitol along with our 8th graders.  It'll be bitter sweet as it will be fun but also one of the last experiences we'll have together as a group, for they are moving on to high school next year. 

6th Grade:  We are finishing our island narratives and drawing a "book cover" this week.

7th Grade:  We are finishing our final drafts of our coral reef animal children's book this week.

8th Grade:  The due date of the research paper has been extended to June 11th.

Two more weeks of work left ladies and gents!  Finish strong!
