Excitement!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The excitement and boredom in the class is high. The students always say they want free time, but when they have it they are bored. We have had a productive week in that we finished projects for the promotion. I hope that everyone will like what we have created. I am looking forward to seeing all of the parents at the promotion ceremony. The students are ready for summer break. Remember, over the summer, please READ! look up any math web sites and play math games, and always, go outside and play.
Have Fun this summer because there will be no rest in high school.

Memories

Well Parents,
It is late tonight. I am making a memory CD of the outstanding 8th grade class. It turned out fantastic, and I think everyone will enjoy it.
While making the movie, I began to think of all the memories of our lives and how many people our lives touch.
Please, always be kind, always give someone a smile, always take pictures, always feed someone who might be hungry, always laugh, always have fun, always enjoy family, always........
I hope that all your lives are as full as mine. I am so blessed to have been able to teach and know your children, they are special, they are unique, they are crazy, they are busy, they are sometimes tired, they are beautiful.
Thank you for letting me be a part of all your lives.

May Flowers

Hello Parents;
Here we are in the second week of May. Our field trip to the Thunderbird National Park was a blast. The students challenged themselves and everyone finished the mile walk. Some of the student ran parts of the way to the top, and others just walked at a slow and steady pace, like me. At lunch Dusty found a football and we all played catch. Man those boys can rocket a ball. The girls aren't too bad either.
This week we will be taking the trip to Wet N Wild. This is going to be a fantastic way to end the week. The class is ready to get cooled off.
This week we will also have another high school in to talk to the class. Many of you have already chosen the high school that you will be attending. Remember, you always have options.
As always, thank you for all your support and interest in your child's education and future. And remember to always stop for a moment in this fast paced world and smell the flowers.
