Summer Break, Week 1

Whoo, it is hot out there! It's been a great week of relaxing and not having to meet deadlines. Reading purely for fun, I'm finishing the Sisters Grimm series by Michael Buckley. If you are a fan of adventures, humor and fantasy, with a little girl power thrown in, this is the series for you. Happy reading!

See you in September!

Wow! Hard to believe but another school year is over! It has been a great year and I will always remember the joy and fun we had as a class. Looking back at the third grade portfolios, it was evident that there was growth in all our learners. Most importantly, there was a sense of friendship and community in our class throughout the year. This class was a favorite of many teachers, especially this one. To quote another Shakespeare play, "Parting is such sweet sorrow". Have the best summer!

Hooray!!!!

The Shakespeare Performance was quite simply, perfect! Everyone remembered their lines and had fun. The performances were spot on! The audience laughed at all the right parts and talk has begun about which Shakespeare text will be performed next.
Bravo!
