Last week got off to a great start! The hallway looks fantastic and the information is so great! Thank you to everyone...you did a fantastic job!
We had a great week of conceptual as well. The students are really getting interested in WWI. The trenches activity worked out really well on Friday. Thanks to everyone who sent balls!
