Good to be back!

Well, I thought the first day back went very well. Everyone settled back into our routine nicely, and we had a very productive day. We officially started geometry; we learned how a story is like a dinner menu; and we chose our book club groups. Tomorrow is a big day since we are going to be starting the book club groups. Essentially, the students are in four different groups, and each group is reading a different book. They'll not only read their book, but share with members from other groups, too. Each student looked over the four choices and then wrote down her/his top three choices. Everyone was then placed in one of those groups. I'm really looking forward to this new adventure in reading.

The January monthly calendar has not been sent home yet, but look for it sometime this week. As always, if you need to contact me, you may do so through the blog, e-mail, or telephone. Hope you're year is off to a fantastic start!
