Upon entering my room, you will immediately notice a poster on the front wall that says “No matter how far you go down the wrong road, you can always turn back.” I did not buy this poster because it was on sale or stylish. I bought it because I’m a firm believer in the “clean slate policy.” We're in a new quarter now. It's time to keep this in mind. What are our strengths and what are our limitations?
I don’t write these “Weekly Updates" because I have to. I do these “extras” because most of my students inspire me to go the extra mile. It's the same reason I go to see many of you at your sporting events, concerts, and school dances. I want to give you the best I can; in turn, I expect the best from you as well. Please don’t forget this.
So where are we headed next week? We'll play some more idiom charades. Your Independent Book Projects will be due on Wednesday. We will start talking about Sanford Dollars and we’ll come up with “team names” for your classes. It will be a short week, but, as always, it will be productive and fun!
-Ms. Sanford
P.S. If you are in book club, please don't forget to return your permission slips by Monday if you plan on joining us to see Wonder. A Google Classroom has been created for all book club members!
