Outside Time Without Extension

Today was a good day for the class. It was full of odds and ends, and a mix of let's-get-this-done stuff and catching-up stuff.

We've been learning about the Constitution and we're getting ready for the Bill of Rights. There is so much more ground I want to cover. I'm afraid you'll have to send your kids to school all summer.

This week we will have our last Spelling list and test and our last DOLs. I'm planning on doing the journals through next week as well as the Words of the Day, in addition to assignments in Science, Social Studies, and Math. There's really no slowing down, and hitting the end is always like hitting a brick wall.

In the end, though, I'm sad to see this year winding down. It's never easy.

You know how we learned about the constitution, are we going to memorize the preamble. (The preamble is the first paragragh of the cononstitution and Mrs.Stemnock's class learned the song.
