SUMMER has arrived!

Betcha thought you heard the last from me . . . .

This is just a quick reminder that the blog and all its links will be running all summer long.  Your student's school accounts will also be active.  What does this mean?   It means they have access to all their learning programs that we used during the school year.   To keep all they have learned fresh in their brains, you should remind them to do the following:

1.  Read at least 3 times a week for 30 minutes.

2.  Hop on a math program, like IXL or Khan Academy and practice multiplication, division, anything decimals/fractions and geometry for 20 minutes, 2 to 3 times a week.


Help remind your student to flex their "brain muscles"!


If you are having problems logging in from home, don't hesitate to shoot me an email.  I would be more than happy to help brainstorm tech solutions!

The Year in Review

It has been an amazing year. Thank you for sharing your students with me.  As always, I am sad to see them go but am proud for all they have learned.  I complied several series of photos journaling a lot of the cool projects, trips and presentations, as well as the student's accomplishments.  Enjoy!
