December 9th - 13th

Happy 2nd week of Advent!!  Please remember to bring either peanut butter or jelly for the all school Christmas food drive for those less fortunate than we are. Last day is Tues Dec 17th.  

Our community service at Pacifica/Hampshire will be on Friday, Dec 13th at 9:45am.  We are still in need of drivers.  If you are available, please let me know asap.  It is greatly appreciated!  

Students selected their books for their book reports last week.  Please make sure they are reading as much as they can in their spare time.  We will be writing a 5 paragraph essay together in class.  Everything for their book report will be done in class, with some editing done as homework.  They will also be doing a short presentation in front of the class.  More details to follow.
