Feel the Earth Move Under My Feet

I found out today that there is a "get to know you" meeting at Clay tonight or something to that effect. On the surface, it probably looks like the kids have a lot of homework, but it's pretty easy stuff. They have two worksheets to do for Reading, one for Math (unless they were messing around during Math and didn't get the other one finished yet--possibly two in that case), their meaning exercise for spelling, and a paragraph to write for Caesar's English. They were given time to do the last one in class as well, so be aware of that, please!

Today we had the statewide earthquake drill. The weather was mercifully tempestuous, so we were spared the fire drill. But please know that your kids know what to do in case of a Richter Scale 5.

In Math today, we learned about writing algebraic expressions. I was really happy to hear them say, "This is kind of fun," during the lesson. Hey, if they want to say writing algebraic expressions is fun, then I'm not going to complain.

Have a good day!
