reflections and assignments for 10/24/08

Whew!

Mrs. Stone and I are out of breath. We had a whirlwind of a school day. Many thanks to Mrs. Stone (Kirsten's mom) for helping out. We made pizza in science and compared it to the layers of our earth--then enjoyed eating it! One of our students fell in the pond at lunch but emerged un-scathed. What a good sport! Because this week has been a bit hectic with the make-up day, I took the liberty of bringing the movie, The Prince of Egypt, that we viewed between yesterday and today. I think all enjoyed it. Legos were required in science yesterday and they stayed and were enjoyed for two days as well. Back to serious school starting Friday!!!

Report cards will be distributed next week. Also, there are plans for a celebration of some kind after school on the 31st. Watch the Trinity Newsletter for more updates.

Enjoy two regular, learning days with your student and I will see you on Friday.

love,
Mrs. Tkach
