Good morning, September!

Worksheets with ant, anti, contra, counter and ob are missing in action from some students. Need to get those into me as quickly as possible..thanks for your help!

Read the story, "The White Umbrella" on pages 34-41 and answered questions relating to the story. The students started learning how to use PEER FACILITATION CIRCLES when they are reading a selection, in this case--a short story.

Discussion centered on the differences in families and their cultural expectations. Also the main character lied or embellished the truth to appear more confident.


On another note, it is important for students to have the proper tennis shoes during wellness. It is tough to run in some flip flops or sandals. In my wellness, we have been playing freeze tag and it gives them great joy to tag their teacher repeatedly because she is old and slow......
