Plan on seeing a few changes in the next couple of weeks as I prepare to launch you into middle school next year.
I like to try new things. One thing that is new for me is an online lesson planning tool. An interesting feature is that I can share my plans online. Take a look:

Progress reports will go home on Tuesday. Please review this, sign it and return it to school.
