I hope you all enjoyed your break-I can tell that
every one is ready to be on a schedule again. I am the luckiest teacher with the
kindest students. They are on a
roll with learning! Thank you so
much for your support-it means the whole world, solar system, stars and
all to me! Look out for a field
trip to the children’s museum in early Feb-I will send a letter as son as
I know specifics. Sincerely,
Mrs. Thompson |
